AUSTRALIAN HISTORY COMPETITION WINNERS
Many students from all across Australia recently participated in the Australian History Competition. We are proud of the 17 students from St John's who challenged themselves to extend their learning by sitting completing this exam.
Our students performed extremely well with 12 making the honours list. Special mention and congratulations to the following students;
YEAR 9 BUSHCRAFT ON COOKING DUTIES
During remote learning our Year 9 Bushcraft students have been investigating meals that are suitable for hiking. Students researched the nutritional value, cooked and evaluated a meal!
YEAR 10 FOOD TECHNOLOGY
Year 10 Food Technology students have been studying food styling and applied their knowledge by producing photographs of a food item with some very impressive results!
YEAR 10 ENGLISH
Year 10 English were challenged with a project to present an aspect of ‘Shakespeare’s King Lear’ play. Students provided some incredible insight & presentations as seen in some of these snippets!
KEEPING ACTIVE DURING REMOTE LEARNING
It's fabulous to see so many students being active during remote learning.
Use your school holidays to look after yourselves by engaging in a variety of sports and activities.
Regular exercise is great for improving your memory & brain function, protecting against several chronic diseases, improving your sleep, reducing anxiety & depression as well as many other benefits!
With thanks to our incredible I.T team and staff working behind the scenes, we were able to livestream our Term 3, Week 10 assembly inclusive of our School Captains Yasmin Willis and Taine Penrose hosting from their homes.
Our final assembly for Term 3 celebrated student talent, sharing Year 11 Music compositions including Ryan Dowers' Beatbox & Abigayle Balanag-Dayusan’s piano pieces.
Impressive major works from our Year 12 Visual Art students were shared and we acknowledged the achievements in sport by many outstanding athletes we have at St John’s, accompanied by some wonderful video footage collated by our 2022 School Captain, Isaac Podmore.
