25.01.2022 Year 6 - Doing things differently together. While ‘Plan A’, the Sydney Canberra Trip wasn’t to be, our 6s can look forward to a combination of unique experiences for GSLC students. This week they are going on an Everglades Adventure and participating in a mock parliamentary process. Early next term they’ll be going to Fraser Island for three days. One of the Year 6 classrooms has been transformed into GSLC’s ‘House of Representatives’ Full marks to Mr Blanch for resourcefulness in locating some House of Reps green!

24.01.2022 Water Polo @ GSLC - Congratulations to our Open Boys Firsts Water Polo on their courageous effort against Matthew Flinders in the Grand Final. Unfortunately a narrow loss going down 8-7 in the last 10 seconds of the game. With most of the team able to return for 2021 (and beyond) there’s a bright future for Water Polo @ GSLC!

24.01.2022 The wonderful world of writing - This morning the Prep Kookaburras began writing the story of Jack and the Beanstalk. Their little hands have been furiously writing ever since. 5 pages in and Kira isn’t ready to put the pencil down just yet!

23.01.2022 GSLC @ Googa - Then & Now Prior to the overnight solo, students do a short reflective bush walk in preparation, called the ‘Pockets’. The ‘Pockets’ involves a wander through the dense vine-scrub, that surrounds Googa, while listening to the birdlife and experiencing the quietness of the bush. Students then gather under a fig where they complete a journaling activity. What makes the ‘Pockets’ significant is that this walking track was made by this GSLC cohort 3 years ago when they camped here in Year 7. Since the ‘Pockets’ was made, it has been a key part of solo preparation for the senior students who visit Googa.

22.01.2022 Inquiry @ GSLC - On Thursday the Australian Space Agency spoke with our Year 5 students following their recent inquiry unit into How the exploration of space will impact our future’. Students heard about the broad range of career roles within the growing Australian space sector which expects to triple by 2030. Students learnt about the types of skills required and how their ‘Learner Assets’ developed during the inquiry unit of problem-solving, resilience, communicating and being an inquirer are so important in the world of work. Our presenter was very impressed with the students’ deep thinking questions during the Q&A session.
