This week in SWP, our Year 12 students engaged in an insightful session titled “What I Wish I Knew.” Louis Gordon and D’Arcy Richardson interviewed four Cranbrook graduates from 2019 to 2022: Tobey Holland, Matt Drielsma, Max Epstein, and Jack Smith. These graduates have embarked on diverse paths, encompassing university, jobs, and various life experiences. They shared their journeys and offered invaluable tips on school, university, part-time jobs, networking, social challenges, travel, gap years, and seizing opportunities. The students appreciated hearing from recent Cranbrook graduates.

Meanwhile, our Year 11 students continued their session on unlocking potential, delving into more study skills with Mr. McDonnell and Ms. Fletcher.

Years 8-10 focused on using courage to develop their social and emotional skills during their mentor group sessions. These activities are designed to help students navigate the complexities of adolescence and build resilience.

Year 7 had a cohort meeting with Mr. Pyle, where they explored the concept of “Being Your Authentic Self.” They were introduced to the idea of individual strengths and the importance of recognising and celebrating the unique qualities each student brings to our community.
