Our two Class 7 groups returned from 10 days on Great Keppel Island this week, as one unified class, ready to move together into the High School. The camp, which traditionally brings together the two classes with their new Guardians, marks a turning point for these young people, ready to embrace all the High School has to offer after their transition year, their last with their Primary School Teachers.
Teacher Cathy Jones said it was a wonderful camp, providing many opportunities for the groups to blend together and begin new friendships, with the Steiner Island Survivor challenge and Trivia Night, camp highlights.
"The new Guardians, Lindel and Rhys, brought fresh, lively approaches that were appreciated by all and gave the students a taste of what the next few years will be like with them," she said.
Tonight, the students celebrate their graduation from the Primary School at their Class 7 formal, at which they will farewell their Class Teachers - Cathy, who will be continuing in her role as Primary School Coordinator, and Julie Marx, who will take over from departing teacher Michael Caterer, with a new group of Class 3s, just as she did with her graduating class five years ago.
Congratulations to Cathy and Julie and best wishes to Lindel and Rhys for the journey ahead with this fabulous group of students.
