Welcome back to Term 4. This term will be busy with all students in Years 9 and 10 preparing to sit semester tests and exams, celebrate their achievements over the course of the year, and begin looking to 2023 in their step up and Year 11 VCE classes. In the assemblies held in Week 1, students were reminded of the importance of using the next few weeks to prepare their revision notes and schedules by revisiting their learning over the course of the year and identifying areas for targeted improvement.

The Year 10 formal committee are currently working to organise a number of activities to raise money for prizes, gifts and potentially a photo booth at the Yr 10 formal on their last day of term. A guess the number of lollies in the jar game was launched in Week 2, with several students coming in to try their luck at guessing the correct number. The committee will continue to meet and plan for the celebrations at the end of the year.

Year 9 students are also busy preparing for their end of year Dance Extravaganza celebrations. Students in the Semester 2 Dance class are working with Ms Segura to choreograph a variety of dances, visiting dance teachers will also begin working with students who wish to showcase their dancing prowess, and Year 9 Peer Mentors will be working with the sub school team to plan the event.
