Year 9 PDHPE Skill Day

Yesterday during Periods 3 and 4, Year 9 ventured to the Park for a PDHPE Skills Day. The main focus of the day was to work on skills for running, Rugby and Football. Andrew Blades, the Director of Rugby and Craig Sharpley, the Head of PDHPE facilitated drills designed to assist the boys in their chosen sports.

 

St Joseph’s Day Liturgy

Tuesday the 19th of March marked the Feast of St Joseph, an important date on the College calendar. A liturgy was held in the Hall and a special lunch provided for the boys. As a community we reflect upon the example that St Joseph provided and his importance as the patron Saint of our College.

 

Head of the River

Last Saturday, Year 9 and the rest of the College attended the AAGPS Head of the River at Sydney International Rowing Centre at Penrith. It was a steamy day and the boys showed great spirit and composure to cheer up and support their schoolmates out on the water.

The day marked the official end of Summer sport and Winter sport is now well underway.

Year 9 Dance

Last night St Joseph’s welcomed the Year 9 girls from Loreto Normanhurst for our first set-dance of the year. The night was a great success and was well organised by Joan Carmody and her assistants. The boys conducted themselves as young gentleman and were the perfect hosts.

Year 9 PDM making Cyanotype images.

Some images from Ms. Simon’s Year 9 PDM class.

Here are some pics of my year 9 PDM class making cyanotype images at the end of last week. This is a form of cameraless photography. They have been working really well. An impressive group that is very enthusiastic.

 

Year 9 2019 Textbook list

The textbook list below is in the format of an order form for Campion Books, however you can source the books from anywhere. One benefit of using Campion is that they will deliver to the College for boarding students and we will distribute the books to the boys.

Please do not stress if your son is missing a textbook or two for the start of the term, teachers know what it is like getting these organised along with everything else.
