Year 7 Sundowner & Camp Information session
House Arts competition
Virtual lesson trial
Upcoming activities

The week that’s been

It was great to see a strong turnout of parents at the Year 7 Sundowner & Camp Information session last Sunday afternoon. We learnt about the upcoming Kooringal camp and were well hosted for drinks by the Parents’ Association.

The House Arts competition began Thursday last week, and it was encouraging to see many of our students achieve success at a House level in chess, debating and public speaking.

COVID-19 has led to some school closures in the eastern states. Whilst we are hopeful that this does not occur at Christ Church we continue to plan for this possibility. On Friday this week I have arranged for our Year 10s to undertake their tutorial, Period 1 and 2 lessons virtually as a trial. Year 10 students who need to attend school that morning will be able to attend designated classrooms where they will still undertake the trial, using their device and headphones.

We are confident that in the event of a school closure we are well prepared to continue lessons for our Senior School students using virtual classroom technology.

Master Mind January Jump Start Program (Years 7 to 10 2026)

Master Mind is offering its January Jump Start Program. These group sessions aim to prepare students for the new academic year before the commencement of school in February. The subject-specific classes offer students a revision of those difficult concepts from the 2025 syllabus, which later become the foundation for the new work they will encounter in the new year. They also offer students a ‘window’ into the units they will encounter in term 1, 2026. Students in Years 7 and 9 will also be coached on how to successfully tackle their NAPLAN assessments that are scheduled for March 2026. The program also offers a six-hour Study Skills program and a six-hour Essay Writing class. More details are available on the MMA website here.
