2021 Year 6 End Of Year Day Out

Our Year 6 cohort - soon to be Secondary Schoolers - were scheduled for a trip to Movie World last Friday for their big end of year Day Out, but it was relocated to The Jungle Adventure Play Indoor Centre due to the stormy weather all week.

Each student received their own personalised drink bottle and bag for an exciting day of climbing, balancing, hanging and swinging adventures before they charge into Year 7!

2021 Principal's Year 4 World Geography Challenge

2021 Principal's Year 4 World Geography Challenge

Over the past month, our Year 4 students have been learning about continents, countries, capital cities, oceans, natural features and flags in weekly lessons with Mr Walker.

All students took part in an online quiz last week, testing their knowledge from the unit, to earn points for their House.

The Grand Finale took place today, involving participants from each House in three rounds: Spelling, Capital Cities and Flags.

There was a great buzz in the room and a very close contest between the Houses ensued.

Cranmer House triumphed in the end, earning 5 points towards the Canterbury Cup interhouse trophy for 2021.

Year 10 Hospitality Takeaway Café

Year 10 Hospitality Takeaway Café

The Year 10 Hospitality Takeaway Café was a fabulous success last week.

Our Year 10 students, under the guidance of Mrs Ingram, had the opportunity to demonstrate their culinary and customer service skills, linked to the attainment of their Certificate I in Hospitality.

So both students and teachers alike enjoyed the delicious cafe meals that they prepared last Thursday and Friday.

Menu items included beef and vegetarian burgers and nachos, meat lovers and vegetarian pizza, plus loaded fries with bacon, cheese and sour cream.

Thank you to all students and staff who supported the café!
