Junior School Report
It has been a busy time of the year in Junior School and students have been working hard to get their best results and to complete assessments for reports. Junior School students are involved in lots of activities around the school and students have had a wonderful year in the Junior School and have also experienced many outings including the school camps and the Melbourne Zoo.
All Year 8 classes have also attended the Strathbogie camp this term and students have and a lovely time with their peers and teachers, canoeing¸ swimming and preparing their evening meals. It has been a great way for them to complete their time in Junior School. We wish our Year 8 students all the best as they transition into Middle School.
END OF YEAR ACTIVITIES
End of Year Activities were planned for Year 7 and Year 8 at school and the activities prepared by the KLA’s were very engaging.
YEAR 8 GRADUATION DANCE
The Year 8 Graduation Dance was held on Tuesday 17 December from 4pm to 6pm at the school. Students enjoyed an evening together celebrating their final time in Junior School. Pizza and other refreshments were provided. The students dressed in their best outfits and looked fabulous.
END OF YEAR AWARDS AND CONCERT
The End of Year Awards and Concert are on Thursday 19 December. We have numerous awards to present to students for their wonderful Academic and Citizenship Achievements. The concert was an exciting way to end the busy year with students and staff performing for everyone.
SCHOOL HOLIDAY PROGRAMS
There will be school holiday programs running in the area. Please see the Community News page of this article for full details.
DATES FOR NEXT YEAR
- Year 7 starts on Wednesday 29 January
- Year 8 starts on Thursday 30 January
We are looking forward to a great start to 2020. If students have everything they require for the first day of school, it makes for a much smoother start for them. Please make sure that all books have been purchased and everything is labelled. It is also a good idea to cover the expensive text books to improve their resale value. Please ensure you have a lock on the first day of the year and make sure that all uniform items including PE uniform are named.
If your child is going overseas they must return to school by the first day in 2020. Please let the office know if you are away. Please call the coordinators if you have any questions on 9366 2555.
