24.01.2022 FUTURE FRIDAY: Today was all about creating memories to look back on at our graduate class reunions. Future Friday was the day for year 12 students to dress up as something / someone they want to be in the future. Future Friday detailed our dreams and the pathway we wish to take after this point, with Albury High playing a significant role in our lives!

23.01.2022 BASKETBALL SELECTIONS: Jake Bauerle (7), Jade Crook (8) & Sam Webb (9) took part in the Basketball NSW High Performance Trials held in October. They were selected to compete in the Basketball NSW D-League (development league) in Sydney over the weekend. All three played hard, against some of the top talent in the state, and did themselves proud.

21.01.2022 HISTORICAL SCHOOL PHOTOS: School photos have certainly changed over the years. (From left to right) "The Boys" photo from 1940. Whilst the school was co-ed it had a distint division of boys side and girls side, both inside and out side the classroom; the Leaving class (Graduation class) of 1927, these were the last students to attend AHS at the old Thurgoona Street site; and, the Leaving class (Graduation class) of 1928. This was the first year to attend school on what is the current AHS site. Wonderful photos such as these allows us to reflect and imagine what school was like then and what the students went on to achieve in life.

20.01.2022 TOURNAMENT TUESDAY: The Year 12’s dressed for sporting activities today, with their focus on Mass volleyball at lunch and handball at recess. Great fun for all!

19.01.2022 PART A VISUAL REPRESENTATIONS: The 9EAK Advanced English (with Mrs Ria Crisp) have been studying "The Taming of the Shrew" for their Shakespearean text in Term 3. Their visual representations included a speech that explained their choices of image, colour, texture etc. They learned a little about feminism and it was hotly contested whether it was in fact a comedic love story or an awful, misogynistic view of Elizabethan England the role of women. Absolutely stellar work was produced with wonderful presentations. Watch these young people on the future, they are going places with these skills! More photos to come tomorrow night.

18.01.2022 YEAR 10 ART EXHIBITION: Last Friday, the year 10 Visual Arts class hosted their own landscape art exhibition in C block.

Feedback from the audience was positive and very pleasing. The year 10 art students were very proud of themselves!
