STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
YEAR 6 REFLECTION LEVI & AVA YEAR 6 SRC
Wow! Term 3 has flown by so quickly, but it ’ s been packed with learning, fun and exciting experiences! One of the highlights has definitely been sport. We've been playing 5/6 sport and winning most of our volleyball, tee ball and tennis matches, go us! It's been awesome working as a team and improving our skills each week. In Inquiry, we ’ ve been diving deep into space, planets, and galaxies. It ’ s been so cool learning about what ’ s out there beyond Earth. As part of our project, we created information posters, made paper mache planets, and even filmed our own videos. We ’ ve become mini experts on the solar system! Learner Agency Hour has been something we ’ ve all enjoyed. Getting to choose what we learn about and work with different teachers has made it really engaging and fun. It ’ s great to have a say in our own learning!
Another big part of Term 3 was our novel study. We read Wonder, which was such an amazing book. It had so many powerful messages about kindness, friendship, family and accepting others. It also connected really well with our Resilience Project, where we focused on GEM; gratitude, empathy and mindfulness. The reflections we did helped us think more about how we treat others and ourselves. As we look ahead to Term 4, we ’ re getting super excited for Funfields, it ’ s going to be an awesome way to celebrate the end of primary school. Graduation planning is already underway, and we ’ re all pumped about performing our song. We can ’ t wait! Another exciting thing coming up is our visit to the MCG as part of our "Influential Australians" inquiry unit. It ’ ll be amazing to stand on the same ground as famous AFL players and learn about their impact. Term 3 has been full of learning and laughter, and we can ’ t wait to make Term 4 just as memorable!
YEAR 12 REFLECTION AIDEN & ANHAD YEAR 12 VICE CAPTAINS
As the final stretch of the school year approaches, the air is growing heavier with a mix of excitement, stress, and expectation. Students across the class are managing a full slate of activities, exams, and preparations, while also counting down the days until exams and, for a majority, graduation. The Freaky Friday school production was a massive success and a source of pride for the Year 12s. It was the final musical for this group, with Jesse in the lead role, alongside cast members Bailey, Jorja, and Alannah, and musicians Aiden and Josh in the band. One of the highlights of the Term was also the Students vs Teachers Basketball Game, held on Thursday, 21st August in support of Daffodil Day – Cancer Council. The gym was packed with students from both sides as students and teachers went head
to head in a competitive match (with the students taking the win). The drink stall fundraiser and the game combined raised over $1,000 for the Cancer Council's Daffodil Day. Looking ahead, practice exams are scheduled for the first week of the holidays, giving students a valuable opportunity to test their knowledge and fine - tune their exam skills under timed conditions. It's a tense time, but one that is a vital part of building confidence and readiness for the final exams. For the majority of subjects, SACs will be completed by the end of this tTerm, with the majority concluding this week. What this will do is allow Term 4 to be kept solely for exam preparation and revision, giving students time to consolidate their knowledge, complete targeted one - on - one sessions with teachers, and focus on performing at their best in the final exams.
