Hollows

After a refreshing September break, we have welcomed back our Hollows students for Term 4. 

 

It has been a very quiet beginning to Term for most of our students with the main focus of celebrating and farewelling our Hollows Year 12s as they finished up their final year of schooling.

 

Looking ahead - we are excited for sunshine and warmer weather, Year 9 City Experience in December, beginning our VCE Step Up Program and welcoming our 2023 Hollows Year 7s for their Transition Days!
