Happy holidays!

While it seems so long ago now that we welcomed the Year 9s back to school and introduced them to the Senior Precinct, it also feels like just yesterday.  Your students have achieved so much already in just one term.  There has been amazing growth demonstrated in so many of them and we are really proud of their achievements.  

It was excellent to see the stellar performances of some of our long distance runners today in our Cross Country.  Well done to all participants!

Speaking with students in the last few weeks, it's been lovely to hear about their successes, in assessment and class work.  We look forward to the shift next term to a new suite of PECS for students to engage with and continue to build a picture of where they would like to head in future years at Foxwell.  A reminder that PEC subject selection forms are available on Student Sharepoint and can be submitted over the break.  We will close subject changes on Friday of Week 2, Term 2.

Excitingly, during this time, students will engage in our Cafe Program.  A chance to try out life as a barista and practise making some amazing flat whites and banana smoothies!  Students will learn valuable workplace skills that will assist them if they have the desire to reach out and begin to start sourcing part time jobs in the community.

Most importantly, this April vacation time is a time to rest and relax for us all.  I hope you have a lovely break and Mr Morris and I look forward to seeing you back next term.
