A very busy and positive end to Term 1!

Our interhigh swimming team pulled off a mammoth effort to take out the senior shield and the overall title for this year’s swimming. I had the privilege of watching some of the racing on the day and the attitude of our team was simply outstanding. Students wrapped support around each other and the staff were “up and about” with excitement throughout the day. A huge congratulations to all involved.

Our Relay for Life team spent many hours last Saturday walking for a great cause. The impact of this event and the stories shared with our students by cancer survivors has had a significant impact, both with the students on the day and then back at Queechy at our last assembly. Thank you to the SLB students involved and the staff team of Mrs Phipps, Mr Ritchie, Ms Mitchell, Mr Jeffrey, Mrs Pooley and Mr Widdowson.

We had a sneak peek at our final assembly this week at the school production “All Shook Up”. The energy and performance skills of the cast were really highlighted and there was a real buzz in the audience after the performance. I can’t wait to see the final show later this year.
A big thank you to Newstead College who are partnering with us on this venture with the final performances to be held in the performing arts space at Newstead College in August. Keep an eye out for ticket information.

Our Year 11/12 students have had a great start to 2025 and it was heartening to see parents and family join us at our final assembly to recognise the efforts of the team and name the College Captains Matayia and Lacey. Well done to all involved.
