Year 7-9 Sector

Year 7 News

The transition from Year 6 to Year 7 was quite easy. So far this term we’ve been learning about debating in English.

 

In Humanities we’ve been learning about our ancestry and Indigenous Australian Culture. With this came an exciting incursion which involved Virtual Reality. It was very interesting, we learnt about different cultural dance and dream time stories.

 

In Health we’ve been learning about Cyber safety and online bullying. During science we’ve been learning about elements, mixtures and compounds. In music we’ve been learning about music from different cultures and in French we’ve been learning new greetings and how to form sentences.

This Year several students have been selected to participate in an Extension class for English or Maths. This involves an extra class which starts at 8 am. It’s been a challenge getting up early but definitely worth it.

 

 

On Tuesday the 19th of February we had our annual 7-9 Swimming Carnival which was a new experience for our cohort. A highlight was definitely having access to the canteen! We got to spend the day competing and spending time with our friends.
