On Monday 12th November a formal assembly was held to honour Remembrance Day and to acknowledge the 100th anniversary of the Armistice which ended the First World War. \u00a0 At this assembly we also inducted the 2019 SRC leadership into their new roles. An SRC handover BBQ will take place on Monday 26th November at lunchtime.<\/p>\n
On Friday night I had the pleasure of attending the 2018 Schools Spectacular an outstanding showcase of the talent in NSW public schools. In terms of sheer size, scale and scope, Schools Spectacular is unequalled in the world with a 2700-strong choir, 2300 diverse\u00a0dancers,\u00a0an 80-piece symphony orchestra, a world-class stage band and a huge number of outstanding solo performers. This year we can be extremely proud of the Fort Street involvement with many Fortians from Years 7-10 participating in the combined choir, orchestra and combined dance performances.<\/p>\n
The end of Term 4, 2018 is fast approaching, the last day of school for all students in Years 7-11 is Wednesday 19th December.\u00a0 There are many activities and events for students to look forward to over the next 3 weeks.<\/p>\n
