Middle Years Matters
Containers for Change
The Year 7B PRAXIS group has taken on the Containers for Change project at the College for this semester. These young students have been organising themselves into small groups, collecting the bins, sorting the containers, and tallying up the totals during their PRAXIS class each Friday. It has been great to witness their growth as they independently allocate the tasks and then work together to complete all jobs within the allocated timeframe. So far, the group has raised over $150 through this process this term.
If you would like to support the students with their project, this can be when returning containers to the depot. Families can use the College’s code [C10003725] when returning the containers. Any support would be greatly appreciated.
Middle Years Plaza - UPDATE
In exciting news, the construction phase of the Middle Years Plaza has now commenced. The Groundsmen Shed has now been dismantled and their equipment has been relocated. Some other areas around the Yellow and Blue teaching blocks have been cordoned off in preparation for other scheduled work.
We look forward to this space being transformed with the inclusion of:
- A new, large locker area
- An undercover area for sector activities
- An outdoor classroom
- A large, landscaped eating area for Middle Years students
- Additional court areas for handball and other lunchtime games.
