2018 COMMUNITY REPORT

12 Our three schools have had some wonderful major events this year. Junior School has had some excellent House Activities during the course of the year with many highlights. Their fortnightly assemblies gave each year level the opportunity to showcase their wonderings and learning to the rest of Junior School, as well as family members in attendance.The biggest highlight being their assembly conducted completely in Mandarin. It was incredibly impressive! The students always enjoy the Parent SupportTeam activities and this year was no exception. The Junior School Carol Service at St Paul’s Cathedral was a beautiful way to start the Christmas season and the Junior School Final Assembly and Christmas Concert certainly added to the Christmas spirit as well. Middle School and Canowindra also enjoyed many House activities this year, including the three carnivals – swimming, athletics and cross-country. Strong individual performances in these carnivals enabled students to be selected for the College teams to compete in the ACS Carnivals. The College continued to perform well in these carnivals, with the highlight being the great success at the athletics carnival with the students bringing home many pennants and a trophy. Middle School andYear 9 students also enjoyed great success with their summer and winter seasons of interschool sports, with a large number of Year 7, 8 and 9 teams reaching grand finals, with many of them victorious as well. OurYear 4, 5 and 6 students also experienced great success in sports with a number of students competing at the district and state level. Our Year 9 students also achieved great success again in the Model SolarVehicle Challenge and the Energy Breakthrough at Maryborough. TAYLORS LAKES CAMPUS REPORT
