Year 9

Mr Joshua Chasney
Leader of Wellbeing – Year 9

As we conclude another successful term, it is timely to reflect on the many achievements and experiences that have shaped our Year 9 cohort throughout the year. Over the past two terms, our students have continued to demonstrate a strong commitment to their learning, embracing opportunities to challenge themselves both inside and outside the classroom.

A particular highlight was the Year 9 Reflection Day, during which students engaged in meaningful discussions and presentations as part of the Respectful Relationships Program for Boys. The day encouraged our young men to consider the importance of respect, empathy, integrity and positive relationships, offering valuable insights that will support their ongoing personal development.

Another significant milestone was the completion of Peer Support training, as students prepare for leadership opportunities in Year 10. Through this program, they developed communication, mentoring and leadership skills that will enable them to support younger students and contribute positively to our College community.

Year 9 students have also represented the College with distinction across a wide range of co‑curricular activities. Their efforts played an important role in the College’s success at the Term 2 Conference Championships in Rugby League and Football. In addition, students competed admirably in the finals of Debating, Rugby 7s and AFL, demonstrating resilience, teamwork and sportsmanship in every arena.

Thank you for your ongoing support of Year 9 and I hope you enjoy a well‑deserved break.
