EPro8

EPro8 is a science and engineering competition focused on problem-solving. It involves teams of students using their creativity, engineering skills, and teamwork to complete various challenges.

The competition is designed to foster skills in science, engineering, and problem-solving.

The senior classes all got the opportunity to try EPro8 out, with two teams eventually being picked to represent the school at the interschool event next term.

Lost property is at the office, does anything look familiar? School items that are labelled have been returned to students.

Choir Student Families - The North West Festival Choir tickets are available for purchase until the end of today.

With cold mornings like today who else is glad that Hot Chocolate morning is TOMORROW! $2 in the science and tech room.
