Every minute matters!

Arriving at school on time helps students start the day settled, organised and ready to learn. It builds positive routines and ensures no valuable learning time is missed.
Year 9 and Year 11 reduced their late arrivals by just over 23%. Well done and keep the consistency going! Please read the attached information for parents regarding compulsory school attendance or visit education.nsw.gov.au.

Coming up this week.

In Week 3 of this term, the majority of Year 8 History students travelled to the Australian National Maritime Museum in Darling Harbour to view the Vikings Galloway Hoard Exhibition.

Buried around AD 900 and discovered on a church ground in Scotland in 2014, the Galloway Hoard contains more than five kilograms of silver, gold and other materials. The collection included rare objects and precious heirlooms from early medieval Britain and Ireland, mainland Europe and as far away as Central Asia. The careful way the hoard was buried helped preserve incredibly rare organic materials, including silk and other textiles. This excursion helped provide students with a valuable opportunity to investigate Viking-age artefacts and deepen their understanding of the movement, trade and connections of people during the early medieval period.

It was a great day and it was amazing to see artefacts close up. We even had the opportunity to handle some items from the collection and listen to archaeologists speak about what the hoard has unlocked in our understanding of the Vikings during the height of the Viking age!
