A few weeks ago, Mr Cuskelly asked me to put at the very top of our Newsletter, a 'What's On' article to keep everyone up to date with our College events. Well, there's not much on so I've bumped it down to article number two and this takes the top of our Newsletter this week. I hope that I can continue to publish a Southern Cross Connection regularly to keep us all connected and to provide good news stories of how our students are learning and dealing with the challenges facing us today and for the foreseeable future. If your child is doing something they would like to share with us, please email me at Sarah.Lilburne@twb.catholic.edu.au

Today, Mrs Patterson's Year 8 students have made a world wide web wall on the end of Yellow block which symbolises how we can all link together to get through this chapter of our lives. The students created this ‘web’ as a way of expressing the importance of keeping in touch with the people they would most miss if they are not able to see them, hug them or hang out with them for an extended period of time. The students traced around their hands and then wrote the names of those people on the hands. The hands are spread out indicating ‘social distancing’,  joined together with string combining the ideas of reaching out and staying connected through the world wide web – which also represents their world in which we are all in this together.
