Year 8 students visited our Year 6 students last week as part of the ongoing PrimEights Mentoring Program. Students spoke about friendships, school, life and even played games of basketball, netball and handball. It’s great seeing their friendships grow!
Last week Year 11 students and staff spent three days at Fairbridge.
Fairbridge uses a holistic approach to working with young people. Services provided range from mentoring, leadership development, life skills, and adventure camps.
Claire Davenhall has recently been selected to exhibit at the Swell Sculpture Festival in Queensland. She recently took out the Major Sculpture Prize at the Drift Installation Awards in Mandurah last month with another one of her pieces. Claire will be entering ‘Meteor Morphosis’ into the exhibit.

Secondary students competed in the SSWA and ACC cross country championships last week.
Special mentions go to Nick Holmes and Luke Heathcote who placed fourth in the SSWA.
More than 70 schools from across WA competed in the ACC competition with SSS placing ninth overall.
Spectacular effort!
Many of us remember the time of our childhood that we spent on the beach messing around with sand, creating castles, water channels or sculptures.
Sandbox is a complex system that uses Kinect with a combination of projector and specialized software written especially for this system.
Using plastic shovel you can remove or add sand and then using you hands you can add “water” to the part of the box you want. Thereafter system immediately fills your channel or lakes with “water”. You can also paint a hill in dark-brown color exactly we see on the special geographical map.
But SAR was not created as just a simple toy for kids. This is a complex system that was created for serious scientific experiments, and can be very useful in creating and examining different geographic, geologic and hydrological models.
The Augmented Reality Sandbox was developed by the UC Davis W.M. Keck Center for Active Visualization in the Earth Sciences (KeckCAVES, http://www.keckcaves.org), supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. DRL 1114663.

Originally declared as a conservation reserve in 1898, John Forrest National Park is WA’s oldest national park. It became John Forrest National Park in 1947, in honour of the famous explorer and statesman, Sir John Forrest, who was Premier of Western Australia between 1890 and 1901.
The students were inspired by the surroundings and had a creative time.
