Three Catherine McAuley students, who are considering a career in the fashion industry, recently attended a two day workshop on sustainable fashion design at TAFE NSW. 🪡👗 The students had the opportunity to explore fashion design through the lens of sustainability and circular strategies. Angela C, Year 11, who attended the workshop said that, “the main objective of the course was to create a textile bag out of old denim jeans so that it becomes sustainable and reusable. We also listened to a talk with one of the employees from the Australian clothing brand Zimmermann. Everyone who attended is now seriously considering a career in this industry”.

Around the Classrooms ➡️ Is the Force With You? 👽 Year 7 Science students of Miss Raja have recently started a new unit called ‘Is The Force With You?’ As part of this the students have been learning about different types of forces. In class last Friday the students modelled crash test dummies and described their motion in different types of collisions. The students explained their observations with reference to inertia, which is the tendency of an object to resist change in motion and is something we experience everyday in a car, bus or train. Through this, students reinforced the importance of wearing seat belts in moving vehicles to slow down with the vehicle and prevent passengers from continuing their forward motion due to inertia.
