Year 6 into 7 Transition Day—What a great day!

The future Year 7 2017 had a great day at

Wauchope High School on Wednesday

meeting their Year Advisors; Mrs James and

Mrs Jensen affectionately known as the

‘Double J’s’.

The students had fun exploring the Agricultural

farm, trying a Maths quiz, a Music class, a

Science experiment , Aboriginal painting,

African drumming and a Drama class, all this

followed by a sausage sizzle. And then a show

bag to take home...how much fun can a student

have in one day?

Mrs James and Mrs Jensen look forward to

welcoming Year 7 students and their parents on

Orientation Day 6th December. Details to follow.

How lucky are Year 7 to have such lovely people as

their Year Advisors, Mrs Jensen has already picked her outfit for their Year 12 Formal in 2022!

Science students in years

8 and 9 have been

experimenting with the

construction of steam

turbines. A group of students

in Year 8 including Corey,

Jarren and Holly are

engineers in the making.

They constructed a Steam

Turbine with outstanding proficiency. The Steam Turbine worked through the use of

heat energy from the Bunsen Burner to generate steam to mechanically turn the

turbine blades. These students used inventive strategies to create a functional

Steam Turbine.

Under 14’s Cricket

Wauchope high defeated

Westport in Round 1 of the

NAB Shield, played at

Ladrigan Park this week.

Wauchope batted first and

made 156, nearly lasting the

40 overs. Corey, Zarn and

Wayde were the leading

contributors.

Westport fell well short of the target, with wickets shared between Hayden, Jack,

Corey and Lincoln.

The boys now play Camden Haven in Round 2.

Japanese Drumming

On Monday 17th October students from year 8 participated in a Japanese

Drumming workshop. Sensei Kiyomi lead the students in a traditional drumming

activity which required students to exercise their skills in watching, listening and

teamwork. Students had to keep the beat as they moved around the circle and

changing drums. Chloe proved to be the strongest drummer on the day leading by

example and following all instructions!
