Canoe Camp

The year 9 & 10 Outdoor Ed class headed off on Canoe camp from the 20th – 22nd March. The students canoed from Picnic Point, Mathoura to Echuca, travelling approximately 85 km. Students carried all of their food and clothing with them and then camped in tents overnight.  A big thank you goes out to Miss Byrnes and Mr Wilkinson for paddling with the students and thanks to Mr Smith for assisting with the transport on the final day.

 

Deb Ball next Friday!

Deb practice is in full swing in preparation for the biannual East Loddon debutante ball. The debutantes and their partners have been working frantically over the last term to get their dancing skills up to scratch. Thank you to the Hicks family and the Deb ball committee for their efforts in preparing the students. We can’t wait to see you all there on the 29th of March.

Year 9 /10 Fashion Illustration Excursion

Our Fashion Illustration class was successfully chosen to attend a Fashion Illustration workshop at the Bendigo Art Gallery with Angie Rehe on Tuesday 31st of October. We started the day with a small presentation looking at some fashion history and learning about how Angie became a fashion illustrator. We were then treated to a viewing of the Edith Head exhibition, one of Hollywood history’s most significant costume designers. There were incredible illustrations on display as well as costumes worn by actors like Shirley Temple, Jane Russell and Fred Astaire. The students got to watch Angie at work, and she gave them some drawing tips before they jumped in and showed off drawing skills of their own. Angie was impressed with the talents of our wonderful students, as was Mrs Heaslip! Well done girls!
