💫Term 2 at VHS
A term of muddy boots and open skies,
Of learning not just where the classroom lies.
From Tarra Bulga’s towering trees,
To Northern Territory’s warm dry breeze.
Backpacks loaded, hiking trails,
Picnic Bay to Tidal’s trails,
Mount Oberon beneath our feet,
A challenge climbed, a hard-earned feat.
Writers wandered Melbourne’s streets,
Collecting stories, words, and beats.
While oceans called with snorkels near,
Marine Biology bringing wonder clear.
Fishing lines cast out with care,
Whale watching moments, salt-filled air.
Human-powered wheels and gears,
Built through effort, sweat, and cheers.
At the dam we tested streams,
Planted trees and chased big dreams.
With Landcare’s hands in earth and clay,
Growing hope for another day.
Community lunches, Venus Bay,
Sharing food and time away.
Bike repairs and woodwork too,
Building old and making new.
Collages crafted, mosaics laid,
MasterChef meals were proudly made.
Bread was kneaded, gardens grown,
Seeds of skill and self were sown.
In science labs and maths debates,
In English books and library gates.
Through Being Human, chess, and games,
Each student learning in their own names.
Horseback rides and farming rows,
Horticulture helping futures grow.
Bowling strikes and gym class sweat,
Moments we won’t soon forget.
Reconciliation week brought space to learn,
To listen deeply, reflect, and turn.
Career expos, the G*T, Top Class too,
Big steps forward in all we do.
And through it all, the strolling slow,
The friendships built, the sparks that glow.
A term of challenge, joy, and art,
A village growing heart to heart.
Now two weeks rest, a chance to pause,
To breathe, reset, without a cause.
Enjoy the break, the winter air,
We’ll see you back for Term 3 there. 🌿
