We are incredibly proud of the creativity, courage and determination our students have demonstrated in crafting their written pieces. Their enthusiasm for writing and willingness to challenge themselves is truly commendable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The WriteOn competition is an annual statewide event for primary students in Years 1\u20136, designed to encourage students to develop their writing skills and express their ideas creatively. Participants are required to compose an imaginative text using a provided stimulus, which this year was the quote,&#8217;It was a small thing, but it made a difference.&#8217; \u00a0This task encourages students to think deeply, plan carefully and showcase their storytelling abilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would like to extend a special congratulations to Joanna Wong (Year 3) and Harvey Chen (Year 1), who have been selected to represent Del Monte in Stage 1 and Stage 2 of the competition. This is a wonderful achievement and a testament to their hard work and talent.<br><br>We wish Joanna and Harvey the very best of luck and look forward to hearing the results in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Curriculum Wrap Up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As Term 2 comes to an end, I would like to commend all students for their continued effort and commitment to their learning. Throughout the term, we have seen wonderful growth across all year levels, with students demonstrating perseverance, curiosity and a positive approach to their studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We celebrate the many achievements across the grades, both big and small, and recognise the hard work that has contributed to these successes. It is always a pleasure to see students striving to do their best and supporting one another along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We look forward to acknowledging and celebrating these accomplishments together at our Dominican Award Assembly this week, a special opportunity to recognise the dedication and achievements of our students as we conclude a successful term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kate Bakhos<\/strong><br>Curriculum Leader P-4 &amp; Year 4 Teacher<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.11.36-pm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"769\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"21370\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.11.36-pm-769x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.11.36-pm-769x1024.jpg 769w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.11.36-pm-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.11.36-pm-768x1022.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.11.36-pm-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.11.36-pm.jpg 840w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 769px) 100vw, 769px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.12.41-pm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"736\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"21371\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.12.41-pm-736x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21371\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.12.41-pm-736x1024.jpg 736w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.12.41-pm-216x300.jpg 216w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.12.41-pm-768x1068.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.12.41-pm-108x150.jpg 108w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2026\/06\/Screenshot-2026-06-22-at-9.12.41-pm.jpg 922w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 736px) 100vw, 736px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WriteOn Competition\u00a0 This past week, I have had the privilege of reviewing a number of outstanding submissions for NESA\u2019s WriteOn competition.
