Senior study revamp

The new senior study is fully operational! New furniture, charging stations for everything electronic, bean bags for chilling. We now have the perfect location for year 12 to study for their HSC – did you hear that kids! Over to you!

A lot of people were involved in the final product. We thank them all, staff, students and businesses. We would like to thank the Smidmore family for their wonderful donation, the SRC for theirs, and of course the P&C who supplied the money for the new furniture. Their involvement in this room and their ongoing support for the library as a whole school hub is very much appreciated by the library staff, and the broader school community. Thank you very much.

Whilst I have your attention … want to help you child with their research task but they blow you away with a pfff, what do you know? Go to our databases and impress them by finding better

Valentines day

The Year 12 SRC students were outstanding with their organisation, enthusiasm and exemplary behaviour on the day. They serenaded students and staff, handed out roses and chocolates to students that were lucky enough to have a have special Valentine that had purchased these for them. Over $1,400 was raised on the day and this money will be used by the Year 12 SRC to fund the normal Year 12 annual obligations such as the purchase of a departing gift for the school. A very big thank you also to Ms Moon, Mr Papadakis, Mr Wright and Mr Regina for their work in making the day so memorable and enjoyable. A huge thank you to the GAT Band for their stellar performance at lunch time in the plaza. The day was a wonderful event for students and staff and I’d like to thank everyone involved for making the day so special.

Art Express Success

Last year the College community was thrilled to be notified that two of our HSC Visual Arts students – Bryan Lim and Hugo Odgers – were to have their major work selected for the Art Express exhibition.
ARTEXPRESS is an annual exhibition featuring a selection of outstanding student artworks developed for the artmaking component of the HSC examination in Visual Arts in NSW. The calibre of work is exceptional and Bryan and Hugo’s major works were a reflection of the sophistication required for both concept and product.

A new baby for Rose Bay SC

A big thank you to the Broderick family for their generous donation of a baby grand piano. Peter Broderick, father of Freya Broderick in year 8, donated and arranged for the transport of the beautiful instrument. None of this would have happened without the support of the MEP and our music department so thank you too to MEP Director Mr Jackson, Ms Lim, Mr Regina and Mr Wright for all their help and effort in delivering our new baby!

STEM escape room

On Friday the STEM Girls participated in an Escape Room at school. The mobile version of Dr Disaster by the Enigma Room was set up at school. The girls worked in small groups together and as a whole team to solve puzzles, riddles, codes and follow clues to lead them to cracking a final code collaboratively.  
Comments from Gracie 

“All the girls participated and cooperated really well. We shared knowledge with each other and collaborated ideas and eventually we cracked the code and even beat the record! It was a memorable experience and we all had so much fun.”
