Around the Grounds

Preppies are on Campus and getting used to life at big-school. Brand new uniforms and shiny shoes at Penbank and Minimbah, there were some tears - not many - but smiles galore.

Our Year 7s at even bigger school are finding their feet too. The first complete (and very HOT) week ends, I think everyone is crawling to the weekend.

The first Senior School Assembly of the year was bursting with energy on Monday. Run entirely by students from The Woodleigh Committee it gives the student body a voice. More than just an assembly it’s a reminder of all the opportunities on offer to everyone. To finish, Mr Baker presented Academic Awards, highlighting students whose dedication and hard work helped them to excel in the classroom.


Inside and outside our Junior Campus Classrooms, students across the year levels prepare for the year ahead.


The Futures Studio at Senior Campus is alive! Students have almost completed their first whole week.
We spend a lot of time talking about the building and the curriculum, but what do the students think?

This week, the Reserve welcomed some new arrivals. Pademelons, Long-nosed Potoroos, and Woylies (Brush-tailed Bettongs) were released, adding to the incredible biodiversity we’re fostering.

Our resident Squirrel Gliders and their antics are always a highlight. If you haven’t visited them recently, now’s the time.
Students rolled up their sleeves to install irrigation systems to support the growth of dahlias. These stunning but notoriously finicky flowers are already blooming.




Until next week...
