2017 Zone Swimming Carnival

This  year  the  Zone  Swimming  Carnival  was  organised  by  Ms  Issa  and  Miss   Watkins.   It   was   a   very   successful   event   for   our   Zone.  Congratulations   to   all   of   the   students  who  made   it   through   to   the  Zone  swimming  Carnival.  Unfortunately  no  students  made  it  through  to  the  Regional  Swimming  Carnival  this  year,  even  though  all  of  our  school  representatives  swam  their  best  on  the  day  and  at  the  finals.    

Selective High School Placement Tests

On  the  9th  of  March  the  High  School  Selective  Placement  Test  took  place   at   Macquarie   Fields   High   School   and   started   at   9:00am   and  finished  at  1:35pm.  It  took  almost  5  hours  to  complete,  thankfully  it  is   all   over   and   all   the  students  can   relax.  Most   students   completed  the  test  and  left  feeling  that  they  had  done  well.  Students  are  keen  to  find  out  their  results.  Congratulations  to  all  students  who  had  the  courage  and  to  give  it  a  try.

 These  competitors  will  be  fighting  it  out  to  

become  the  BEE-­‐BOT  CHAMPION  By  Harrison  

This  book  is  nothing  but  spectacular  especially  if  you  are  interested  in  how  refugees  live  and  how  they  are  treated,  this  is  definitely  your  type  of  book.  It  is  about  2  main  characters  Bibi  and   Jamal,  Bibi   is  a  girl  and   Jamal   is  a  boy,  both  are  big   soccer   fans  and   love   to  play  soccer,   the   sad   thing   is   that  girls   can’t  play  soccer   in  Afghanistan.  Nobody   is   allowed   to  be  home  schooled  and   their  Mum  runs  an   illegal   school  and  what’s  even  worse,  their  Dad  uses  army  petrol,  which  is   illegal   in  their  country  too.  So   the   family   sets   off   for   a   new   life   in   a   new   country.  Overall   this   book   is   beyond  amazing  and  you  should  definitely  go  to  your  local  book  shop  and  buy  this  incredible  book.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            By  Cody
