Pyjama Day

Our students had fun raising money for little people with big dreams by wearing their PJ's to school for the day.  A big thanks to our Interact Club students for organising the day.

Year 6 Camp – Cairns

Our Year 6 students are enjoying their camp in Cairns.  They visited Hartley's Crocodile Adventure Park and Mossman Gorge. At Hartley’s, they had a caged boat tour amongst some savage crocodiles which was very exciting! They also learned about these fascinating creatures at the Crocodile Feeding Show and got up close and personal with some koalas, wallabies and kangaroos. At Mossman Gorge the students were treated to a ‘Smoking Ceremony’ and ‘Welcome to Country’, by an Indigenous guide from the region. On a guided walk, they learned about how our Traditional Owners use their land, taking only what they need.

Junior Athletics Carnival

Our annual Junior Athletics Carnival was a massive success! Two days chock-full of activities saw our students participating in shot put, discus, high jump, long jump and many different track events. True College spirit was on show, with students not only giving their best efforts, but cheering on their friends and supporting those in need. We had some incredible results and impressive athletic feats! Thank you to all the parents and special friends who came to support, as well as our incredible faculty and student helpers who not only ensured a smooth event, but that everyone had a great time.

Prep to Year 3 Cross Country

Our Prep to Year 3 Cross Country Carnival was amazing with a huge turnout of parents, grandparents and special friends to cheer on our Junior College. Our students put in loads of effort racing for their respective houses. A special shoutout goes to Year 3 student Carter, who was a fantastic co-commentator with Mrs Jane Couche. Congratulations to Haley House, who were the champions on the day, but moreso congratulations to all our competitors who showed tremendous College spirit, getting stuck in and having a go.
