House Captain Report

HOUSE CAPTAINS

SECONDARY REFLECTION This year as House Captains we have attended meetings and contributed to our school. We went on an excursion to the city to listen to Ben Pettingill talk about his struggles and experience being blind and how he lives through adversity. This was inspiring and made us feel like we could do anything we put our minds to. We helped with the organisation of Athletics Day, which unfortunately was initially cancelled due to poor weather. This didn ’ t stop us though! On that day we ran a variety of activities at the school and the athletics day was moved to a later date. Getting two days for our houses meant that we built our school spirit and we got to see everyone dressed up on BOTH days! At the Secondary Campus, everyone was given the opportunity to participate in every sport! This included Volleyball, Basketball, Netball, Soccer, Athletics and Cross Country. Not only this, but some students in year 11 helped coach the year 7 team which was another leadership opportunity and chance to build inter year level relationships. We had students from nearly every year level advance to not only Region and State events, but also Nationals.

This year we FINALLY got to do a school production (after years of being cancelled because of Covid - 19), ‘ Bring It On! ’. There were lots of opportunities to get involved including being backstage, in the band, helping with costumes/hair and makeup, and performing on stage! It was a great experience for all involved and we can ’ t wait until the next one. Over the course of the year we had LOTS of excursions, including, but not limited to Whittlesea tech; Girls In Stem; Melbourne Zoo; as well as our Year 9 City experience; and, a music workshop at the Arts Centre with many upcoming events like YES YES YES and an end of school activity for all year levels. At these excursions we learnt new things, made new friends and had fun with our peers. In conclusion, this year Thes Lakes South Morang College has been a journey filled with growth, inspiration, and camaraderie. We've faced challenges head - on, learned valuable life lessons, and created lasting memories. As the academic year progresses, we look forward to seizing every opportunity for personal and academic development, further strengthening the bonds within our school community.
