ASH WEDNESDAY
CHEERING PRACTICE
The Year 12 students are always watchful that the quality of cheering at events is up to standard each year. With a big Basketball match against Newington this Saturday and the Head of the River fast approaching, they have been ramping things up after each Headmaster’s Assembly. What starts off slow at times, soon gets very loud and even the Year 7 boys are very keen to rip into it, as can be seen by the final photo.
PHOTOGRAPHIC AND DIGITAL MEDIA EXCURSION
An enjoyable day was had by Year 10 Photography students on a practical-based excursion to gather images from two of Sydney’s historic sites. First stop was Cockatoo Island where the unique industrial structures and machinery provided excellent subject matter. Then off to Luna Park to capture the contrasting landscape of the amusement park. The boys will now work on editing and compositing their photographs to produce a portfolio of digital images and a short conceptual film on the theme of ‘bamboozled’.
