🎥 Transition Thursday 🎥
Starting high school is a big step, and who better to hear from than the students who have experienced it most recently themselves?
This week, our Year 10 students spoke to some of our Year 7 students to find out what they enjoy most about life at high school. From making new friends and discovering favourite subjects to getting involved in clubs and activities.
We hope what they say helps reassure our new starters and give you a glimpse of what makes our school such a great place. 💙
