In Community class this term the Junior students practiced the skills they have been learning by preparing and organising a cafe. The students worked together to plan and design a menu, buy ingredients, make food and beverages, sew aprons, organise order forms, set up the hall and put in place processes for effective trading. All the planning came together last week when the students worked with each other to run a cafe for everyone in the school....

It is with great sadness that we reach out to let you know that our beloved school dog, Sydney, has passed away. After recovering well from having her infected gallbladder removed over the Easter holidays, she suddenly became very ill with aggressive cancer that had spread through her organs. We had to make the compassionate decision to end her suffering. We know that Syd was an incredibly important member of our school community and she made a lasting impact on many of our past students and staff....

We recently hosted our very first Big Night Out at our new site, a tradition that has been part of our school fabric for more than 30 years. Every year the students amaze and impress us with their performative talents and this year was no different. We were wowed by bands that covered a large range of genres, a number of solo performances, two songs from our famous junk band, electronic music, hip hop and it was all finished off with a song from the staff band....

We've spent this year getting used to our new school site and can now comfortably say that we have settled in and adjusted to the rhythms of Glenylon Road. We worked really hard to continue as normal and wanted to share with everyone a snapshot of the year to date. We have continued learning, gone on excursions, hosted incursions, been on a range of camps, hosted concerts and reflected on what we need to do as a school community to make our new home the most conducive learning environment possible.

The process of moving school, settling in and emptying the old site has finally concluded. A team of caregivers, parents, kin and staff recently came together to remove the last traces of 50 years of education. It has been an incredibly busy and emotional time but we have settled in really well into our new site and we'd like to thank everyone that supported us in the moving process over the last few years.

Here's a little bit of late news, but we hope you will forgive us as moving school sites is a massive job and has taken up all the extra time that we have had over January and into the beginning of Term 1. On the First day of the 2023 school year studnets, staff and parents, caregivers, kin and other school community members and supporters, gathered at the old school site on Sydney road to make walk together to the new school....

On the 15th of September, in the last week of term 3, the Juniors' joint humanities classes marched to the beat of Ross’s war drums over to Randazzo park (aka Dog Poo Park) for a Medieval tourney. After weeks of dedicated effort working in collaboration with Senior VCAL students creating outfits and weapons (swords, shields, battle axes, amour, maces and an amazing flail) it was finally time to put their makings to the test....

We would like to invite present, past and future members of the SRCS community to say goodbye to our school of 50 years. This year is our last year at 350 Sydney Road and we are having an evening of speeches, music, historical displays and time for people to walk around and be in the space. A very big thank you to Hunter for designing such a beautiful poster. Please share with your networks!
