The beginning of Term 2 has been nothing short of spectacular for our Middle School students. Not only did our students participate enthusiastically in the Scoresby District Athletics Carnival, but they also showcased their talents at the Fairhills High School Senior Grade 5 & 6 Basketball Cup on Wednesday 1 May.
At the Scoresby District Athletics Carnival, our students played a crucial role, assisting in various capacities. Their dedication and support were instrumental in making the event a resounding success and provided a great opportunity to build community relationships with our primary school network.
Additionally, we would like to extend our congratulations to all the Primary School feeder teams for their outstanding performance in the Fairhills High School Senior Basketball Cup. The competition was fierce, and every team gave their best effort, making it an amazing event for everyone involved.
The results of the competition are as follows:
Boys/mixed Teams:
- First Place: Kent Park Primary School
- Second Place: Knox Park Primary School
- Third Place: Wattle View Primary School
- Fourth Place: Knox Central
Girls Teams:
- First Place: Kent Park Primary School

- Third Place: Wattle View Primary School
- Fourth Place: Knox Central
One standout achievement came from Hudson (our Year 9 student), who coached the Kent Park boys/mixed team to a well-deserved first-place victory. His leadership, dedication, and coaching skills were exemplary, and we are incredibly proud of his achievement.
A huge congratulations to Ruby for her incredible contribution to the World’s Greatest Shave. Ruby participated in this fantastic event and managed to raise over $2000 for the Leukemia Foundation. We are incredibly proud of her efforts.
In other news, our Year 9 Connect students have commenced their Morrisby testing, marking the beginning of an exciting journey into career exploration. The Morrisby testing provides students with valuable insights into their strengths and interests, helping them identify potential career pathways and job opportunities.
Upon completion of the testing, students will receive a comprehensive report highlighting their strengths and areas of interest. This report will serve as a valuable tool as they begin to explore various career options and make informed decisions about their future.
We are excited to support our students on this journey of self-discovery and career exploration, and we look forward to seeing where their passions and talents may lead them in the future.
Once again, congratulations to all our Middle School students for a great start to Term 2. Keep up the fantastic work!
