BEN QUILTY INSPIRED WORKSHOP

Years 9, 10, and a very keen Year 11 student, had an incredible time at the Ben Quilty inspired workshop conducted by the extremely talented Mr Connor Phillip.

‘Cars’ was the theme of the day, and we learnt how to use a palette knife and impasto techniques.

A big thank you to Connor who is an ex-Asquith Boys student who was selected for Art Express. All students raved about their day and looking at their artwork you can see why!

YEAR 12 BIOLOGY EXCURSION

On the first day of spring, Year 12 Biology took advantage of the beautiful weather and went to the University of New South Wales to visit the Museum of Human Disease. Students attended lectures about infectious diseases, non-infectious diseases and genetics and had the opportunity to examine organs donated to scientific research, furthering their understanding of these topics. This excursion also offered students a glimpse of university life and a taste of selections from the cafeteria. As always, students were enthusiastic, polite and excellent representatives of our school.

EXPRESSIVE PORTRAITS - YEAR 11
Year 11 Visual Art are up to the next part of their expressive portraits using cardboard and sustainable materials. We are using charcoal and, unconventionally, coffee as a postmodern twist. We are all loving the dripping coffee.

From one very proud SASS team member

Yesterday, our wonderful SASS team were surprised with a delicious morning tea and beautiful flowers as a thank you and in recognition of SASS Appreciation Week. It was such a thoughtful gesture and gave me the opportunity to reflect on just how lucky I feel to be part of the Hornsby High School community.

I think I can speak on behalf of my fellow SASS colleagues when I say that it truly is a joy to come to work, where we happily hit the ground running with each of our own very different roles and workloads, whether it's working in administration, ordering and preparing food for Hospitality, organising equipment and chemicals for Science classes, running a well-organised library, or caring for and managing the grounds of our beautiful school.

What we all have in common is the genuine pleasure we get from supporting our teachers, students, families and, of course, each other. Every member of our SASS team is dedicated to their role and to making a positive contribution to our school. We are a happy, friendly and hardworking team, always ready to help wherever we can.

The successful transition to a co-educational school has been a wonderful achievement, and I believe it reflects the whole school spirit at Hornsby High School, a community where everyone plays a part, supports one another and works together for the benefit of our students.

I am incredibly proud to be part of this special team and this wonderful school community.

Happy SASS Appreciation Week to our amazing team, you are valued, appreciated and an important part of what makes Hornsby High School such a great place to be.

School Administrative Officer

HHS DANCE TROUPE
On Sunday the 30th of August, the Hornsby High School Dance Troupe proudly participated in the Hills Dance Spectacular. The girls performed an energetic jazz routine alongside talented dance groups from other local high schools. Their confidence, teamwork and enthusiasm shone on stage, reflecting the many hours they have dedicated to rehearsals and refining their performance. We are incredibly proud of the way the students represented Hornsby High School and supported one another throughout the event.
