Awesome FUN!

As part of the Year 7 Transition Program, Week 1 and 2 of Term 1 are dedicated to helping students meet each other and develop friendships, learn how to use their laptops, get organised and become familiar with lockers and timetables.

Year 7 Camp took place in Week 1, with the main aim of helping the students get to know each other, while having fun. Students and parents may have been a bit nervous about having a camp so early in the year, however, students thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the opportunity to meet their new peers and develop friendships before classes started.

It was a really good time to connect and make new friendships. The lasagne was my favourite meal!

Atticus Jones :: I was a bit nervous about camp, but more nervous about starting Year 7 in general. My favourite part of camp of was the raft building. Our raft sank but that was the fun part! Year 7 is amazing! It is way more fun than primary school, which is not what I expected!

Travelling as a cohort is fun when you are in Year 5. Tour de Freo, rock wall and zip lining were some of the activities on offer at Year 5 Camp.

In Week 2 of Term 1, the Year 5 students were very lucky to go on their School Camp to Woodman Point in Perth. Woodman Point is an historic old quarantine station that was built over 100 years ago, during the last pandemic – the Spanish Flu. The campsite was very comfortable and very close to Fremantle where, on day two, we enjoyed exploring many of the
