We are well and truly into Semester 2, and the year is flying by. Students have settled into their second semester subjects, and everyone will now have changed elective subjects. Middle school students get a taste of Home Ec, Design & Tech, Digital Media, Drama, Music, Textiles and Visual Arts with specialist teachers in these areas. We are extremely fortunate to be able to offer such a large range of subjects to our students. Our teachers are always available to discuss student progress and answer any of your questions. Please feel free to make contact by phoneing the school or email at any time.

It's an exciting time to be a Year 9 student as we prepare for the Ski Trip and Alternate Activities week coming up in Week 4. The Ski Trippers will leave Saturday night, 10^th August, travelling on buses bound for Falls Creek. Thankfully, there has been some good snowfall recently. Other Year 9 students will participate in a range of activities and excursions including Tenpin Bowling in Port Pirie, movies at Blyth Cinema, cooking and a nature walk, and an Amazing Race. Thank you to all the teachers and SSOs who have put enormous time and effort into organising all these fantastic excursions and activities for the students to enjoy. It will certainly be a week of firsts for some and a week to remember for all.

Coming up later in the term – PAT testing, Year 7-9 Poetry in Action, Year 9 Geography Excursion.
