From the workshop to the basketball courts, our Year 11 Building and Construction Skills students have put their learning into action, creating something that will benefit our entire school community!

Throughout the year, our students have been creating additional seating areas for around the school. After constructing the seating structures earlier in the year, at the end of last term it was all about bringing their hard work to life with the final installation.

Now, our basketball courts have extra seating for students to enjoy, a practical addition that makes a real difference to our school spaces.

This is what hands-on learning is all about! Developing practical skills, building confidence and seeing a project through from construction to completion, all while creating something meaningful for others.

A big thank you to our Design and Technologies teachers for providing our Year 11s with such a valuable, real-world learning experience. Not only are our students building their skills, but they're also leaving a lasting contribution that our whole community can enjoy.

Well done team!

A reminder to all families and visitors:
🚫 The bus lane is for buses only and must not be entered by other vehicles.
🚫 U-turns are not permitted at the entry or exit of the bus lane at any time.

We understand that school traffic can be busy, particularly at the beginning and end of the day, but these arrangements are in place to help keep our students, families, staff and wider community safe.

If you are dropping off or collecting your child, please use the designated drop-off zone in the Minka Lane car park, located near the PAC.

Please do not enter the bus lane at any time of the day to drop off or collect students, perform u-turns or to avoid traffic. Unexpected vehicle movements around the bus lane can create serious safety risks, particularly when students are moving through the area.

A few extra seconds taking the correct route can make all the difference when it comes to keeping our community safe.

Mental health matters, and looking after our wellbeing is something we shouldn't overlook.

Tomorrow, our Health Hub team is bringing a little something different to the Woods, with Old MacDonald’s Farm joining us during Lunch 1!

Come along, take a break from the school day and pat some baby animals!

Sometimes, a little time connecting with animals, friends and our community is just what we need.

The day has been put together by our Health Hub team to give students and staff an opportunity to connect, have some fun and focus on their wellbeing.

Mental Health Week is also a great reminder to check in with the people around us. A simple β€œAre you okay?”, a conversation with a friend, or reaching out when things aren't feeling quite right can make a real difference.

And remember, you don't have to navigate things alone. Our Health Hub team is always here to listen, support and help connect our students with the support they need.

So, Eagles, come along tomorrow, bring a friend, pat a baby animal and take a little time for you.

Looking after your mental health is part of the Woods Way.

Our Tu Tangata cultural students were invited to perform at Bolton Clarke Carrington Aged Care as part of its 25th Anniversary Jubilee celebrations.

Our students were proud to be part of the celebration, joining students from four other schools for this special occasion.

Opportunities like this allow our students to connect with the wider community, build meaningful relationships and share their culture and talents beyond the gates of Ormeau Woods SHS.

We’re so proud of our Tu Tangata students for representing our school and being part of such a special community celebration.

A new term means new opportunities to learn, grow and make the most of every day in the Woods.

This week, our PB4L Focus is all about Being Prepared for Learning.

Being prepared means arriving to class on time, organised and ready to learn. It’s having the equipment you need, knowing what’s expected and being ready to give learning your best effort.

It might seem simple, but being prepared can make a big difference. When we’re ready to learn, we can spend less time getting organised and more time learning, participating and achieving.

So this week, Eagles, let’s make it a habit:

πŸ“š Bring what you need.
⏰ Be on time.
🎯 Know what you’re doing.
πŸ’ͺ Be ready to learn.

Because being prepared is part of the Woods Way.

At the end of last term, some of our Academy of Rugby League players took their involvement in the game to the next level, completing their Junior Refereeing Qualifications, including the practical component of the course.

As part of the holistic approach to our Academy of Rugby League program, we encourage our players to become involved in the game beyond simply playing.

Developing their refereeing skills gives our students another opportunity to contribute to Rugby League while building valuable leadership, communication and decision-making skills and gaining an even greater understanding of the game.

With their qualifications now complete, our students will have the opportunity to referee at local primary school gala days, while also potentially earning an income through their skills and involvement in Rugby League.

It’s another great example of how our Rugby League program looks beyond the field, giving our Eagles opportunities to develop skills, build confidence and find different pathways to stay involved in the game they love.

Playing the game is just one pathway. At Ormeau Woods, we’re helping our students discover what else is possible.

A huge congratulations to Jesse in Year 7, who has returned from the State Futsal Championships as a State Champion with his U12 team!

Across three days of competition, the team went undefeated, finishing their campaign in style with an impressive 8–4 victory in the final to claim the State Championship title.

In their quarter-final, Jesse made his mark early, scoring a hat-trick in quick succession to help his team progress.

And Jesse’s weekend was even more impressive. While competing at the State Futsal Championships, he was also juggling the Premier Invitational Football tournament across the weekend.

What an incredible achievement and a huge effort from Jesse across a very busy weekend of football.

Congratulations, Jesse!
