Elevate Education Parent Online Session 

Earlier this year the Year 8 students attended a session on ‘Time Management’ run by Elevate Education.The Parents session will now be online, not at the school.

Elevate will be running an ‘Online Parent Session’ on Thursday 25 March, between 5-6pm as we would like you to hear the information so that you can encourage your child to use these skills at home when studying. These skills will stand them in good stead for all years and we encourage the students to practise them so that they become more effective learners. 

Parents of students in year 7, 8 and 9 will be sent a link directly to the online session to access. 

Peer Support

Year 7 Peer Support will be finishing up by the end of this term. Peer Support has been a great success in building positive relationships between our junior and senior students as well as helping to develop a sense of belonging among our Year 7 students. The students have made many friendships with students in other classes.  

Year 7 and 8 Round Robin

It has been great to see so many Year 7 and 8 students try out for an inter school sports team over the last few weeks. These teams will be participating in the interschool sports round robin before the end of term. We have fielded teams in tennis, softball, cricket, volleyball and lawn bowls. Good luck to all of the sports!
