Box Hill High School

This morning we welcomed Year 7-9 Parents and Carers for morning tea, alongside a facilitated presentation and discussion with school leaders on the topic of “Developing self-regulation in our teens and responding to AI in education.” Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the fruitful discussions.

To mark National Reconciliation Week, and as part of our school’s ongoing commitment to reconciliation, our students have been taking time to engage in meaningful learning experiences that honour and celebrate the cultures and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples. Through classroom discussions, storytelling, and shared experiences, we continue to build understanding and unity within our diverse school community.

BHHS is pleased to offer this family seminar on Growing up Online. https://www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1589766

Katie has also been recognised by Swinburne University, and was awarded their Top Design Award in the category of Best Piece of Communication Design! Congratulations to Katie and her teacher Ben Davies!

Staff and students joined services this morning, paying their respects and reflecting on the service and sacrifice of those who came before them. In our foyer you will find the names of the young Box Hill High School men recorded and memorialised. These are the names of those who fought for our freedoms, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Lest we forget.

A very happy Easter to our BHHS families celebrating with their friends and family this long weekend

A message from the BHHS Sustainability Club:
Is it waste, or is it a resource? Sustainability club celebrated the end of term 1 by making origami Easter egg baskets out of sustainable toilet paper packaging. Family celebrations can generate a lot of waste and Easter is no egg-ception.

Here are our top tips for how to have a sustainable Easter:
1. Easter egg wrappers are only recyclable if you bunch them up into a ball at least the size of a golf ball

2. When buying chocolate, opt for more sustainable choices such as local, certified organic, and fairtrade chocolate brands such as Tony’s Chocolonely

3. If seafood will be appearing on your menu for Good Friday, be sure it’s sustainably sourced and certified by the Marine Stewardship Council
