Our extra-curricular highlights
Spelling bee and public speaking
Public speaking and spelling bee opportunities help students develop essential communication, confidence, and literacy skills in a fun and supportive environment. These programs encourage students to express themselves clearly, think quickly, and engage with their peers through friendly competition. By participating, students enhance their vocabulary, improve their pronunciation, and build self-assurance that benefits them both inside and outside the classroom.
Baiame Cave Aboriginal Education Excursion
The Baiame Cave site is a heritage-listed Aboriginal site of national significance. Students will have the unique opportunity to meet local elder Uncle Warren, who will provide a traditional ‘Welcome to Country’ and share an introduction to the cultural and historical importance of the cave.
