What’s happening in Year 9?
As a Year 9 student, I’m really excited about all the events coming up this year, especially City Experience. It will be a great chance to spend time with my friends, explore new places, and try things I haven’t done before. I’m also looking forward to making new memories and learning more outside the classroom. I think these experiences will make this year even more fun and unforgettable. Term 3 is shaping up to be an exciting and busy term with many opportunities to get involved. One highlight is Wakakirri, where I feel incredibly excited and honoured to be part of such a supportive and talented group of students and staff. Together we have been working on our performance, Roots Between Us, which we will present at the Clocktower Centre on 5 August. I’m also looking forward to the Year 9/10 girls' basketball tryouts, with the chance to represent the school in a round-robin competition against local schools if I make the team. Finally, being part of the DDP has been an amazing experience. After our last showcase, we went straight back into rehearsals to prepare for the next performance, and we were also excited to receive our DDP uniforms, which we now proudly wear every Tuesday morning. One of my favourite parts of Year 9 so far has been taking part in the Man Cave event. It was a really enjoyable experience because it gave us the chance to step away from normal classes and have honest conversations about things that are important in everyday life. I liked how everyone was encouraged to share their ideas, listen to each other, and support one another. The activities were interesting and made me think more about being a good friend, showing respect, and having the confidence to be myself. It also helped me realise how important teamwork, communication, and looking out for others can be. Overall, I thought Man Cave was a great experience, and I’m really glad I had the opportunity to take part in it because I learned a lot and made some great memories with my classmates.
