Bring it On!
Northcote High School’s production of Bring It On was a resounding success, with William Olver Hall full and over 1000 tickets sold. Over 170 students were involved in the production in a variety of roles, including but not limited to actors, dancers, costumers and backstage crew. Many thanks to all families, students and staff who supported the show over the past six months.
Latin at Northcote!
Latin is no longer a dead language at NHS. A group of dedicated latinists have been learning after school since last year. They will tell you that not just is Latin fun, it helps with literacy; with language learning; with studying English Language or Classics and with feeling more confident generally!
New students are always welcome (and interested parents too!). We have an intermediate class and a beginners class - with specialised teachers who can help even if the only Latin you know if the school motto!
Want to know more? There is an information evening on Thursday August 11 at 6pm in M1. Here our two teachers will go through what they do in class and answer all your questions! In the meantime...contact Carlene Wilson for more information.
