Thank you to all students who participated in the book/character dress up day held on Monday 21st June.

First of all, a very big thank you to our school community for the support of the Café this semester.

On 21st May a group of Year 9 students went down to Box Hill TAFE Lilydale Campus to get a ‘taste’ of TAFE life.

We were proud to support Reconciliation Week by implementing an indigenous menu in the café.

Although we are almost half way through this term, the focus has definitely been on learning in the classroom.

On Monday 17th of May, the Junior, Middle and Senior school girls headed to Barngeong Reserve to compete in the Yarra District interschool football competition.

We officially launched the Collaborative Indigenous Strategy with all six schools in the Lilydale and Upper Yarra Education Plan, with the Minister of Education, James Merlino, MP for Eastern Victoria Harriet Shing and Wurundjeri elder, Murrindindi.

What a busy term we have had for the first half of Term 2. We have had over 20 different Sport teams participating in the Yarra Group Interschool Sports competitions, as well as Yarra Group Cross Country, the Eastern Region Baseball and very recently the Athletics Carnival, which we will feature in the next Newsletter.

The Year 9 and 10 students played the American version and non-contact version of football over the time period of one month.

It has been a busy time in the veggie garden this term. Students have harvested lettuce, bok choy, beetroot, basil, silverbeet and parsley.

Café Culture students did a wonderful job running two Pink Picnics for Mother’s Day.

Congratulations to our winning Year 8 Badminton Girls who came away with the blue flag
