Celebrating Onam ✨🌼

Today we celebrate Onam, a vibrant harvest festival from Kerala, India, that represents joy, gratitude, and togetherness. Traditionally celebrated with beautiful flower arrangements (pookalam), traditional foods, cultural performances, and family gatherings, Onam is a time to honour community, prosperity, and the spirit of sharing.

We extend our warm wishes to all students, families, and community members celebrating Onam. 🌸

💡 The Mystery of the Classroom Lights & Physics Escape Room! 🔍⚡

Our students stepped into the role of physicists and investigators as they explored two exciting, hands-on physics challenges.

First, they investigated a real classroom mystery: Why does the order of switching two switches affect how many lights operate? Students observed the lighting system, created circuit diagrams, built their own circuits and used evidence to explain how the switches and bulbs were connected.

Then, students took on the Physics Escape Room: The Case of the Stolen Signal Scrambler! 🕵️‍♀️ Working collaboratively, they solved five circuit-based challenges, analysed clues and applied their understanding of current, voltage, resistance and circuits to identify the culprit. After piecing together the evidence, they cracked the case - Captain Ohm was guilty! ⚡

These engaging activities provided authentic opportunities to develop problem-solving, critical thinking, collaboration, communication and scientific reasoning skills while putting physics into action! 🔬✨

"Tuesday on Flinders" Choral Concert 🎤🎵

On Tuesday 18 August, 35 students from our three co-curricular choirs presented a 45-minute program at Flinders Street Baptist Church as part of the "Tuesday on Flinders" lunchtime concert series.

The audience enjoyed a range of repertoire including jazz, gospel and classical music by students from Years 7-12 in Polyfonics, Senior Choir and the newly established Concert Choir. We look forward to returning on Tuesday 27 October with our Year 11 solo performers.

At Woodville High School, every student’s voice matters. Respect, inclusion and wellbeing are at the heart of Our Woodville, and we all have a role to play in creating a safe and supportive community.

This Bullying No Way Week, with the theme “Small Acts, Big Impact,” we’re revisiting our anti-bullying video, co-designed by our students in partnership with Electric Road, an Adelaide creative and digital agency.

Our students’ message remains just as important today: small acts of kindness, inclusion and standing up for others can make a big difference.

Let’s continue to look out for one another, speak up against bullying and create a community where everyone feels safe, respected and that they belong.
