Our students proudly represented the school at the PDSSSC Volleyball Gala Day last week demonstrating fantastic teamwork, determination, and resilience throughout the day. Both the Junior and Intermediate teams played with great spirit, supported one another, and showed excellent sportsmanship on and off the court. Their positive attitudes and willingness to keep pushing, no matter the challenge, were a credit to our school community. A big thank you to our parents and families who came along to support the teams, it made a real difference on the day. We would also like to acknowledge Mrs McElroy for her organisation of the event. Well done to all players for your effort and commitment, we are proud of you!

7HSIE1 students experimented today with the preservation process involved in Ancient Egyptian mummification. We created our own natron salt to preserve the flesh of an apple and in ten day's time we will see the effectiveness of this technique! Ancient Egyptians needed to preserve the physical body so that the deceased person could enter the happy place called the Field of Reeds in their afterlife.

Taylah (Year 12) is one step closer to her dreams of taking flight after stepping into the world of cabin crew careers with Qantas. Thanks to Georgie Dunstan and the Early Talent Team at Australia’s global airline, Taylah was immersed in what it truly takes to become a flight attendant from the moment this incredible and unique experience began. From exploring a realistic aircraft cabin setup - complete with passenger seating, service trolleys and authentic training equipment - to learning about the evolution of uniforms and onboard service, every moment brought the role of a cabin crew team member to life. A standout was the opportunity to connect with Sophie, a current flight attendant, who shared her personal journey and answered questions with honesty and insight. Taylah also took part in a collaborative group task, mirroring the recruitment process and showcasing the teamwork and communication skills needed to succeed in the industry - giving her a genuine taste of what future applicants can expect. The experience was elevated even further through virtual reality training, allowing Taylah to move through the entire aircraft - from flight deck to cabin - and interact with its features in real time. The immersion concluded with valuable conversations with recruitment team members, offering practical advice, clarity and real-world guidance on pathways into the industry. Opportunities like this don’t just inform - they inspire, ignite ambition and build confidence, enabling Taylah to envision her future and take one step closer to it. Our sincere thanks to Georgie, Kalinda Petrovski, and the Qantas team for generously providing such a wonderful experience for aspiring cabin crew.

Our Year 12 students recently attended their Social Day hosted by St Dominic’s College, enjoying a memorable experience filled with connection, laughter, and community. Throughout the day, students participated in a variety of engaging activities, including team-building games, trivia, and a shared pizza lunch, before enjoying some friendly competition in dodgeball and volleyball. It was wonderful to see students step away from their studies, strengthen friendships, and embrace this important stage of their schooling journey. The day was filled with energy and joy, with new friendships formed. Truly a highlight of the Year 12 experience.

Today we launched our Discover the UNIverse Lunch & Learn series with Joseph from Australian Catholic University, and what a fantastic start it was! A big turnout of students gained valuable insights into everything ACU has to offer as they begin thinking about life after school. From exploring campuses and student life, to unpacking study options, scholarships, and pathway programs - including ACU Gurantee Early Entry and All Points To Teaching - students walked away with a clearer picture of what their future could look like. Joseph also highlighted ACU’s strong graduate employability, innovative programs like the business incubator, and the vibrant campus culture filled with events, clubs, sport and societies. A huge thank you to Joseph and ACU for such an engaging and informative session!
