Year 3

This year, the Year 3 students have embraced a wide range of opportunities to extend their learning and personal growth.

Students demonstrated courage and team spirit as they participated in their first Years 3-12 Swimming Carnival. They also visited the College Museum, where they explored the history and significant developments of the College, examined artefacts and uniforms, and posed thoughtful questions.

A major highlight was the Outdoor Education Experience at Tallong. Students engaged in a variety of activities that encouraged teamwork, independence and a deeper appreciation of the natural environment.
Year 3 students enjoyed connecting with Prep students through the buddy program. Each student was paired with a Prep buddy who attends two, three or five days a week. This initiative fostered meaningful relationships while supporting the development of leadership and communication skills in a nurturing setting.
In Term 4, students visited the State Library of New South Wales, where they participated in the Visual Literacy in Action workshop. They explored techniques for creating and interpreting images in texts, followed by a visit to the Botanical Gardens to enjoy the beauty of the surroundings.

Throughout the year, it has been a pleasure to witness the enthusiasm, resilience, and growth of all Year 3 students as they embraced each new experience.
