Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Students on both campuses focussed on their Half-Yearly examinations this week and the

school has been interestingly quiet. Years 10 and Year 11 will continue writing next week with

the Year 12 students starting their Pre Trials today and continuing into the first week of the holi-

day. Years 7 – 9 will complete their examinations on Monday next week and receive feed-

back from their teachers thereafter. Mrs Oud has spoken at length to the students about a

growth mindset rather than a fixed one. They have all been issued with a reflective journal

which will form the central thread of their feedback sessions. It would be great if parents had

a look at this journal as much of the theory of a growth mindset is included and reinforcement

of the concepts at home would be helpful.

During this exam period a number of students have still had some outstanding achievements

in other fields namely:

Josh Devine took part in the Central Coast Regional Open Judo Championships,

achieving first place in his weight division and was awarded a Gold Medal a number of

weeks ago. This competition qualified him for the NSW State Judo Team, which is en-

tered the National Judo Competition held in Geelong over the weekend. The competi-

tion in the higher weight division was particularly high and he did not make the finals but

reinforced his eagerness to commit to another year’s training for next year’s Judo Na-

tionals.

A STUDY OF MASK AND PHYSICAL THEATRE

This semester Year 8 has been introduced to the concept of Mask; its historical context, function,

mask performance techniques as well as mask-making. They have explored non-verbal communi-

cation, physicality and practitioner Jacques Lecoq’s ‘6 Levels of Tension’ to create their wonder-

fully diverse characters. Over the past 2 weeks they have delighted us with their devised perfor-

mances in which they demonstrated the power of the mask on stage. We have been amazed

and enthralled by the creative imagination and expression that the students have brought to this

task and we look forward to seeing what they produce next!

YEAR 11 BIOLOGY

On Friday 3rd June 22 budding Biologists, along with Ms Dignan and Mr Fenner made the journey

to Bonna Point reserve in Kurnell. The students were collecting data for Unit 2 of their Preliminary

biology course about local ecosystems. With mangroves, salt marsh, sand dunes and sea grass,

there was a lot for the students to take in. With the weather changeable, there were some crack-

ing outfits on show, including a mushroom umbrella and lots of gum boots (which, as many found

out, are only waterproof as long as the water doesn't go over the top!!). The students did a tran-

sects study looking at sand dune succession, quadrats in the mangroves looking for mud crabs -

where some students were brave enough to hold the crabs whilst others almost became mud

crabs by getting stuck, they tried some samphire from the salt marshes and did a net survey of the

sea grass. All in all it was a fantastic day, the students were amazing and they collected some val-

uable data for their studies.
