INTERHOUSE DEBATING

Interhouse Debating competition was won by Timae in a hard-fought contest between the houses. 54 Year 7-12 students took part in the competition which saw teams debate contentious issues including whether humanity will ultimately consume itself and if adults truly understand today’s young people. Timae won top honours for the fifth time in the competition’s history!

Shipwreck Museum

Year 11 and 12 ATAR Marine and Maritime Studies students visited the WA Shipwreck Museum to learn more about ancient spice trading, Dutch explorers and the incredibly story of the Batavia. Standing next to artefacts form the wrecks that are almost 400 years old was quite memorable experience for them, highlighting the importance of the conservation techniques they have been learning in class.
