Some students in Miss Stott's Year 9 ceramics class had a go honing their skills on the pottery wheel in the last few classes of the semester. They took it in turns to watch and try, and had a really fun time getting messy and developing new skills!

- Demonstrations

Jack showed us his BMX build in isolation.

Food Studies 

During isolation, our Food Technology teachers set some exciting yet achievable tasks. However, no one expected such creative and impressive results.   It seems that for many of our students, getting inspired in the kitchen was the most popular activity.

Performances

 - Music in Isolation

Not even isolation could stop our music students from performing together.

 - Dance Night

This year Dance Night took on a very different format with the new restrictions for gathering in place.  Students in Years 9 and 10 worked hard on two routines each to provide an entertaining virtual concert that was enjoyed by many.
