This week, Year 9 have been showcasing their Service-learning projects on the theme of promoting good health and wellbeing. 9 Endeavour having been learning about the importance of sleep and led an advocacy campaign to inform others. 9 Kontiki led a Wednesday Wellbeing Workout focused on the role of exercise in wellbeing. 9 Discovery shared an update on their research and advocacy project on the dangers of vaping, and 9 Calypso have been focusing on nutrition by curating a digital resource library, sharing healthy recipe ideas, and hosting a guess the vegetable competition. Service-learning empowers young people to be change leaders. It cultivates the key drivers of wellbeing and can enhance attitudes to self, school, learning and community, as well as nurturing critical thinking skills and emotional intelligence. Thank you to our Year 9 Service-learning leaders for organizing the events, in particular our Project Managers: Sarah, Leo, Maja, Luca, Hanna, and Dia.

There was a fun packed programme for the secondary students remaining on-site, which followed the 5 Co-Curricular strands. Students were immersed in languages, film-making, STEAM activities and cooking. They learned about children's rights and advocacy, and showed their creative talents through artwork. They hiked in the hills and formed friendships across year groups. See the Firefly page for further details and photographs
It has been a very memorable end of the primary journey for our Year 6 students. This last week of term has been jam packed. On Monday and Tuesday, the students performed the end of year production of ‘Olivia’, on Tuesday morning, there was a year group water fight and on Wednesday afternoon, they finally graduated with a special ceremony.
As a community, we've been actively promoting healthy eating habits through our weekly articles about life in the kitchen. With the summer holidays just a few days away and the heatwave this summer, we must all be more mindful of our fluid intake.
