The final term of the year is always busy as we finalise assessment, complete exams and begin preparations for new classes during our Head Start program. As we begin this period, we encourage our VCE Science students to take advantage of the various lunch time catch up clubs. We also ask that students keep challenging themselves to consistently build their learning skills. The following website outlines 10 tips to help students and empower them to reach their goals

One student who has challenged herself this year has been Amy H. Amy will be our Captain of sustainability in 2023 and on Friday 16 September, graduated from the Zoo’s Victoria Youth Leadership program. I was lucky enough to attend this event and was very proud to be part of Amy’s leadership journey. The event held at the Melbourne Zoo was led by the graduating students. They took us through their learning journey, the impact that education has on sustainability and ways in which schools can reduce their single use plastic usage. Nicole and Kirsty, the leaders from Zoo’s Victoria Youth program, were incredibly proud of the efforts of the students involved and we encourage any student wanting to be involved in this program to step forward and contact Amy over the coming weeks.

Photos of the occasion can be found below. Congratulations Amy, you should be proud of your efforts!

We wish all our senior students the best of luck as they enter their final assessments and exams. We ask that parents and caregivers encourage their children to reach their potential and strive for excellence.

Thank you, as always, for working with us. We look forward to a rewarding term ahead!
