From the Leader of Learning Year 10

I would like to thank Year 10 and for all of their hard work throughout the term. It has been so wonderful to see the students getting involved in a variety of school initiatives and activities that include the Writing Competition, the Art Competitions, The Jazz and Rock Music Night, Athletics, Cross Country, Public Speaking, Project Compassion and Stations of the Cross and more.

Well done to Frienczel Espino for winning the Writing Competition for the Month of March. 

I would like to congratulate Marley Kozak, Holly McLoughlin, Ava Mulroney and Brooke Robinson for their wonderful efforts in the Diving Competition. Marley Kozak placed 2nd and Holly McLoughlin placed 3rd on Wednesday at the NSW CCC Diving Event and both girls will go on to represent the College and the NSW CCC at the NSW All Schools Diving Championships in June.

I would also like to thank our wonderful Year 10 Learning Advisors for all of their support during Term 1. Their care and commitment to our Year 10 students is admirable and I look forward to working with them all for the remainder of the year. Thank you to the following teachers:

Please see below for some of the wonderful work Year 10 have been doing in their Learning Groups:

Recently in Mrs Kemal's Learning Group, 10F8, students have been discussing aspiring careers and interests in possible pathways in achieving our goals. Students in F8 were asked “What is your dream career?” and a vast range of professions were listed. 

Mrs Kemal took this list, researched these professions/careers providing information in regards to overview, role responsibilities, prerequisites, how to enrol and QR codes for students to interact with. This information was then arranged on the back notification board of F8 for all to engage with. 

For some in the Learning Group this question - “What is your dream career?” was quite confronting and sparked conversation. To facilitate direction, a large QR Code in the centre of the career wall directed the students to a quick career assessment which asks the student questions in relation to their personality, character strengths and interests. This then linked the students to a list of careers which reflected their responses the best. 

― Mrs Shandel Kemal, Learning Group F8

For Project Compassion 10C10 raised funds through an Easter Raffle. Prizes that were up for grabs included - a rebel gift card, playstation gift card, a hoyts gift card and easter eggs just to name a few.

In total we raised just a bit over $80. Thank you to all those who donated. Your donation has gone to a good cause and we are looking forward to next year! ― Mr Giancarlo Ison, Learning Group C10
