END OF YEAR ACTIVITIES

REFLECTION OF LEARNING PRESENTATIONS

At the end of every year, we like to celebrate the successes of the year and to begin this our Year 8 and Year 9 students have begun working on their Refection of Learning (ROL) presentation (originally known as Authentic Assessment).

Year 8 students will prepare and deliver an oral presentation on what and how they have learnt in three subject areas relating to the topic of “Change” to their Homegroup and a panel.  

Year 9 students will create a report on their learning, focusing on their skills, knowledge, abilities and achievements in three subject areas they have studied this year. In their presentation they may wish to speak about their understanding of how each of their subject areas inter-relate.

All panels will be made up of school staff and members of the public and delivered in Week 9 on Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th December.

We are currently seeking community members to sit on these panels, on one or both days from 9am - 1pm. If you or someone you know would like to be a panel member please send your details and the days that you can attend to michelle.pudney209@schools.sa.edu.au.

YEAR 8 & 9 END OF YEAR EXCURSIONS

Following the ROL presentations, on the 10th December the Year 8s will attend an excursion to the Gawler Recreation Centre, for a session of skating to some boppy tunes. The Year 9s will be rewarded with an excursion to Barossa Bowland, participating in a game of mini-golf and ten pin bowling.

MIDDLE SCHOOL GRADUATION ASSEMBLY

On the last day of term, Friday 11th December we will hold our Middle School Graduation Assembly in the Gym at 12pm and parents/caregivers are invited to attend. We look forward to seeing you there and celebrating all the achievements of our students in 2020.
