The Year 2s were enthusiastic and eager to embrace learning onsite at Barbreck. The year started with fingers and toes crossed, hoping that Learn@home was a thing of the past. To the girls’ relief, it has been a seamless year. The girls have grown personally, socially, and academically throughout 2022. They excitedly reconnected with their friends and peers across the Junior School. Mindful of the importance of the girls’ health and wellbeing, after the disruption of COVID, this year The Resilience Project was introduced to build positive mental health and assist the girls in becoming happier and more resilient. There were many highlights throughout 2022. In Term 1, the History Unit was a high point. The girls embraced the opportunity to explore the St Catherine’s Campus. Sherren House and Illawarra were among the girls’ favourite sites. Term 2 came and went in a blink of an eye. The girls were busy learning the nuances of persuasive writing and creating a PowerPoint presentation on a significant place. Semester 2 was action packed. The girls embraced the opportunity to dress up for Book Week and watched the theatre production Story Quest. Term 3 finished on a high with Arts Week. The girls relished the opportunity to engage in a range of stimulating activities. The standout focal point for Term 4 was the Year 2 sleepover; the anticipated event did not disappoint.
