DRAMA MONOLOGUES
Well done to the Drama students
on their performance of their Drama monologues last Monday night. Students
scripted and performed their own original pieces showing off some amazing
talent. Thank you to Mr McRae for his work in preparing the students
for the performances and to Mrs Brown for working with the students to assist with hospitality for the event.
SENIOR SCHOOL PARENT
INFORMATION NIGHT
Thank you to parents who
attended the Senior School Information Session last Thursday evening. A
key area for the evening was the need for students to stay focused if they are to
achieve their goals and have choices at the end of Year 12. In the Senior
School years students should be putting a significant amount of time into
homework and study. Year 10 students should be committing at least 2
hours each evening, Year 11 students 21/2 hours and Year 12 students 3
hours. Students also need to be dedicating a significant block of
time to study on weekends. Ms Walmsley gave an example of how
students can plan to complete short term tasks and meet longer term study
goals. Students need to maintain a balance of life including committing
to family activities and sport/exercise. However, students who commit
long hours to part time jobs and other out of school commitments find it very
difficult to put in the required study to achieve their goals. In planning
for the future students and parents are also encouraged to explore a variety of
careers. Links ot a variety of resources can be found on the Career Pathways page
on the College website. http://web.holycross.wa.edu.au/enrichment/career.php
