Update from the Campus Principal

Over the past fortnight, I have been incredibly proud of the way our students have approached their learning and school activities with determination and effort.

Success is not always measured purely by academic results, but by the willingness to try, persevere, and continually improve.

Every day we see students challenging themselves in the classroom, and supporting one another to achieve their personal best.

As a school community, we want our students to understand that effort is one of the most important ingredients for success.

When students apply themselves consistently, they build confidence, resilience, and a sense of pride in their achievements.

We encourage all students to continue embracing challenges, learning from mistakes, and recognising that growth comes through persistence and hard work.

Oobleck in Primary Science Year 5

Oobleck in Primary Science

To introduce our new Science Assignment in Term 2 - “What the matter?”

Primary students made and explored the properties of Oobleck, a goopy substance that behaves both like a liquid and a solid.

Students shared what they already knew about the three states of matter; Solid, Liquid and Gas, and used the experiment to identify how in this substance, it is possible to be both a liquid and a solid at the same time.

It was a lot of messy fun (the best kind) and a great way to kick start our Science Assignment.

Music Show & Tell Showcase Year 5

Our Year 5 students had a special opportunity this term to take part in their own Music Show & Tell, after missing out on the event last term.

They embraced the moment with enthusiasm, sharing a thoughtful mix of performances and presentations that highlighted both their musical skills and personal connections to music.

Several students performed on piano and didgeridoo, showing growing confidence and expression as they played for their classmates. Adding to the richness of the showcase, two students presented family instruments—a beautifully aged violin and a guitar that had been passed down through generations—sharing the stories behind them and what they mean to their families.

It was a meaningful and engaging session that celebrated not only performance but also the history and pride that music can carry.

Year 8 Mathematics - No CANVAS - No Problem !

Despite an unexpected technology hiccup today, our Year 8 Mathematics students demonstrated outstanding resilience and adaptability.

With CANVAS unavailable, the class quickly shifted to traditional paper-based activities—and embraced the change with enthusiasm.

Taking advantage of the beautiful winter sunshine, the lesson even moved outdoors, creating a positive and engaging learning environment.

It was fantastic to see students so readily prepared to learn anytime and anywhere, maintaining focus and commitment regardless of the circumstances.

Their flexibility and positive attitude are a true reflection of the strong learning culture we continue to build.

Kind Regards,

Deborah Selman
Sub-Regional Compliance Coordinator
