The senior sector have all electives up and running. Year 10 students are joining in with the years 11 and 12 to participate in the Health and Physical Education elective. We will be alternating the Health component with the Physical Education component between terms 1 and 2.

The Physical Education elective provides students with the opportunity to set and then reach some fitness goals using the fabulous equipment in the new playground. The smiling faces in the pictures reflect the fun we have through carrying out our fitness program and recording our progress in our student folios. Student groups are also producing posters giving information on the types of fitness activities available and how this benefits our general health and wellbeing, as well as the mental health benefits of keeping active.

Last Friday the senior students coordinated an outstanding Parent “meet and greet” afternoon. Many thanks to all of the parents, carers and invited staff members who attended. It was wonderful to touch bases and to give parents and carers an understanding of the senior schooling program. The students prepared a very tasty afternoon tea, after which they proudly showed off the new and improved playground equipment.

The majority of Year 10 ICP meetings have been completed. Thank you to all parents and carers who made the time to meet at school to discuss our educational plans for your student. If you have not yet had your ICP meeting, could you please contact your child’s classroom teacher immediately to set up an appointment date?
