Student-Led Tutorials

Our wonderful Student Learning Leaders are running student-led tutorials in the Library every Wednesday from 3-4pm. This is a great opportunity to learn from peers who have studied units already. All are welcome!

Student Diary

What a fortnight it has been! Last Monday we held the Year 9 BECOME Flipped Careers Expo which was a great success with students presenting to younger students, staff and visiting parents about their chosen careers. I was so impressed with so many students who had taken this opportunity to connect with industry contacts to really delve into the practicalities of work life. Congratulations to all participating students and a huge thanks to Mrs Coggins and Mrs Braddon in Pathways and the wonderful team of teachers who volunteered to lead this program.

I have also been away on Year 8 camp for the first half of this week. This opportunity allows students to consider how they engage with their peers as a team and recognise the value of collaboration and resilience. It was so great to see everyone getting involved in lots of activities which may have initially been outside their comfort zone. They now have memories which will last a lifetime!

I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Mrs Borg’s 7.7 Science class to hear them presenting their models about moon phases, seasons and eclipses. Students spoke confidently about what they had learned and were eager to demonstrate this knowledge on their models. Well done to all!
