It has been a very busy Term for our Year 7 students - this newsletter contains a number of articles about some of the fantastic work and activities we have been involved in. Thank you to our parents and communities who continue to support our students. We now look ahead to Term Three. In Term Three the Year 7 classes move on to a Health and Wellbeing integrated theme. The "F" Factor is our catch phrase for the term which will look at - Friendship, Focus, Family, Food, Fun..... under the umbrella of thinking about what being happy and healthy is all about.

As part of this unit all Year 7 classes will also be covering the Understanding Changes at Puberty unit. We will be having a parent information evening on Wednesday July 24th at 6pm for any parents who would like some further insight into this unit. All classes will also be planning a PBL inquiry around this unit - teachers are currently putting together some new and exciting projects that different classes will be working on.... watch this space for further details as we head into Term Three with a focus on our Wellbeing and looking out for others. 

A well earned break is now here. We wish everyone to have a safe and restful winter holiday and look forward to seeing everyone return in Term Three ready to continue the outstanding year we are having to date.
