We are thrilled this week to be able to move back into the Home Economics Centre and cooking will resume after the renovations finished this week. It looks amazing and will certainly be a lovely space to work in.
Over the last few weeks a number of parents and community members have made a real contribution to our school. Thank you Gavin Hodgson for working on moving dirt in the amphitheatre area and to Levi Hansen and Chad Cowin for their help with one of our steers. The help these guys have provided has been invaluable and much appreciated. Thank you
On Tuesday night our staff combined with some staff from John Pirie Secondary School and Jamestown Community School to participate in a workshop with Rosie Kerin. With a focus on vocabulary in writing as part of our Site Improvement Plan the session helped us to look at ways to encourage students to write and also increase their subject specific vocabulary.
Whilst it feels like old news, congratulations to our show team on their results at the Kadina Show. Tanisha Wakefield took out 1st and Max Crouch 3rd with the cattle and Francis Venning was 2nd in the goat as well as being the most consistent handler. To seal it all the team took out first in the Grand Parade. Thank you to Jodie, Zwar, Gavin Hodgson and the Crawford family for transporting students and supporting Nicola Wright and Leon Hams on the day.
Last week we welcomed the year 7 students for an initial transition day where they had a chance to make some ice-cream in Science and get involved in some goat handling. As a whole group they all got competitive in a soccer game.
We are able to announce Kate Seidel has been appointed the Middle School Coordinator the next 3 years. This is exciting for Kate as now she will be able to continue the work she has started this year, especially in relation to the incoming year 6 and 7 students.
