What a start to the year it has been. Junior School has been buzzing with activity. Here's a brief overview:

Year 7 Transition Program

Big thanks are due to our awesome Year 7 teachers, with special recognition to Ms Boorman, our Year Level Leader, for orchestrating the smooth implementation of our new week-long transition program. The recent excursion to Splash serves as a notable highlight, bolstered by the exemplary support provided by our Year 9 Peer Support Leaders.

Meet the Homeroom Teacher Nights

A sincere thank you to all parents and students who attended the Year 8 and 9 Meet the Homeroom Teacher night last Thursday 15 February. Your participation underscored the significance of fostering robust partnerships between home and school, an essential component of our educational ethos. We genuinely enjoy putting faces to names and having a good chat.

Year 7 Camp

As we speak, our Year 7 students are immersed in the adventures of their Kinglake camp. That is where I am writing to you from and I can report an atmosphere of enthusiasm, excitement and camaraderie. I'm forecasting some very tired students arriving home on Wednesday afternoon.

Year 8 Camp

The Year 8 Camp is fast approaching, commencing Monday 4 March. Information was sent via PAM to parents this week. Students will receive camp information in next week's Year Level Assembly on Thursday 29 February.

Upcoming Events:

• Camp awaits 7C, 7D, 7E, 7F, and 7G next week.
• Year 7 Reflection Days begin next week, providing students with invaluable moments of introspection and personal development.
• Year 8 Camp.
• Year 7 Commissioning Mass, a significant milestone marking the formal induction of our Year 7 students into our school community.
• Year 9 Lunchtime Sports will commence in two weeks' time.
