Community Day

Year 10

Last day of Classes Friday 27 November

Year 10 celebrated their last day of academic classes during Week 7. This saw many photos, COVID friendly hugs and an afternoon assembly to wrap up the year. Each PC class were amazing in providing a small gift of gratitude to their PC teacher for the efforts they put in this year. The Year group then finished off the afternoon with friends and teachers taking more photos on Clare Lawn.

Community Day Tuesday 1 December

Year 10 had the final part of their celebration on Community Day. This involved students attending Zone Bowling for some 10 pin action. There were some many competitive lanes and also lanes who were there just to have a great time. It was a great atmosphere during our bowling session and everyone left proud of their score. 106 was the highest - well done Lainey and Khot!

We then went to the Canberra Aqua Park for hours of fun on the inflatable. It was a fantastic time with many memorable moments and some stacks and stumbles along the way. We broke up the fun with some pizza for lunch in the shade and then played on the inflatable well into the afternoon. Everyone was very tried by the end of the day but there were smiles all round.

Big thank you to the PC teachers for helping supervise throughout the celebrations. I hope Year 10 have a well deserved break and come back refreshed for Year 11 in 2021.

Year 10 Coordinator Reflection Day Monday 30 November

On Monday 30 November Year 10 students participated in their Reflection Day. Sam Clear facilitated the day talking about his 15,600km journey on foot around the world through South America, Central America and North America, across Siberia by train and on foot again from Moscow to the western most point of Spain, all to pray for unity. Sam uses his extraordinary experiences as an invitation to students to reflect on their own capacity to change the world around them. Session 1, specifically focussed on perseverance and humility, Session 2, was all about engaging one’s passions and Session 3, embracing trust with courage. The final session involved a Water Liturgy asking students to invite God to bring his love into their lives. Sam as always proved to be an engaging speaker and our Year 10 students gained a great deal from all the activities presented.
