This was a special event designed to ease the transition into high school and set the stage for a year filled with growth, learning, and friendship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The day began with our incoming year 7 students meeting our Principal, College Leadership Team and their Year Coordinators. Students then experienced taster lessons ranging from Visual Arts to Languages and Science. They then went on a Campus Tour where they navigated the College with their Year 12 Big sisters with a passport tour. The day ended with a fabulous concert by our talented Music students.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At St Ursula\u2019s we understand that the transition to high school is not only significant for students but also for their families. As such, it was lovely to see so many parents and carers at our Parent Information night where we discussed matters relating to curriculum, extracurricular activities, and ways to support their child during this transition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Orientation day is crucial for easing the adjustment to high school, building confidence, and establishing the foundation for a successful and positive academic journey. We thank our parents, carers and their daughters for the way in which they engaged in both Orientation and the Parent Information Night. We are very much looking forward to working closely with you in 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5>\u00a0<\/h5>\n<h5><em><strong>Anne Sukkar<br \/>\nLeader of Wellbeing<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-13321 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/12\/OrientationYear7-2.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/12\/OrientationYear7-2-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/12\/OrientationYear7-4.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/12\/OrientationYear7-4-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/12\/OrientationYear7-6.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/12\/OrientationYear7-6-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<figure class='gallery-item link-'>\n<div class='gallery-icon'>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/12\/OrientationYear7-5.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightcase:1:slideshow\" title=\"\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2023\/12\/OrientationYear7-5-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<div class='gallery-item__overlay d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center'><span class='fal fa-plus fa-2x'><\/span><\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The College welcomes 2024&#8217;s Year 7 students at Orientation Day<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13462,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","class_list":["post-13321","article","type-article","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article\/13321","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/article"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13321"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13462"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/serviam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13321"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
