A group of our Year 12 students recently had the opportunity to attend the Future Focus Day at the University of Sydney, gaining valuable insight into university life and post-school pathways.
The day was designed to inspire and inform senior students as they prepare for the next stage of their academic and career journeys. Students participated in a series of interactive workshops and panel discussions featuring current university students.
Highlights of the day included hands-on sessions in a faculty of their choice, guidance on course selection, and tips on applying for scholarships and early entry programs. Many students commented that the experience helped them feel more confident about their future study options and opened their eyes to new possibilities.
Furthermore, we were privileged to experience a guided tour of the Women’s College, one of the university’s residential colleges. Students were impressed by the facilities, the academic support on offer and the community events.
Our students represented the school with pride, engaging thoughtfully in activities and asking insightful questions. The event proved not only educational but also motivational, encouraging our students to set ambitious goals and take confident steps towards life after the HSC.

AROUND THE CLASSROOMS ➡ Year 10 Design and Technology students of Mr Munro have finished making their storage solution projects. Students had an open brief for what they could design as long as it was something for either a pet, themselves, a family member or the household. Students had a $40 budget between two students and could also use items they could find at school or home. The items had to be under 40cm. The students have made a wonderful range of storage solutions!

YEAR 7 PEER MENTORING 🥰 The Peer Mentoring Program continues with Year 7 students joining with their Year 10 Peer Mentors every Thursday afternoon. The program will continue through to the end of Term 2. Last week in their groups the students were looking at resilience and participating in activities with resilience the focus. “Resilience is an important skill to learn, whether it be with study, with friendship groups or a whole range of different situations,” says Peer Mentor Lyoni. The students played a game with cards which outlined a situation which might happen and the students needed to consider and discuss the positives which could come out of that situation.
