22.01.2022 Science is reaching new heights at Newlands! The Year 6 students took their lesson outside for some fun and fizzy experiments. During the last weeks of school, classes are making the most out of their time on campus, and with teamwork and perseverance, it's only up from here!

21.01.2022 Creative Arts classes encourage children to express their understanding of the world around them. Our connection to country and respect for the environment has been a significant focus in Haileybury Castlefield's ELC art activities. The children have had a blast learning about koalas, wildlife and natural habitats, with lots of outdoor exploring in recent weeks!

20.01.2022 Whether it’s exploring sculpture in Art, movement in Drama or percussion rhythms in Music, our teachers are passionate about their subject area and deliver an exceptional learning program for our students. It’s terrific to be finishing the year with so much joy and enthusiasm in the classroom!

18.01.2022 Congratulations to our Year 12 students who have persevered through a year like no other! Today the students celebrated their hard work with music, food and speeches to end their last day at school. We wish them all the best for their VCE exams and look forward to honouring them at their Graduation ceremonies.

17.01.2022 Our Edrington Prep students have been working with the software program KidPix 3D during CDT classes this week. We loved seeing the Digibooks they created about different types of computers and were very proud to display their terrific work!

17.01.2022 The Six Givens are a mainstay in each Junior School classroom, two of which are high expectations and presentation. Our Year 4 students have been working hard throughout the year on their cursive handwriting skills, culminating in the achievement of the much revered ‘pen licence’! Well done to Annie on reaching such a marvellous milestone today!

17.01.2022 The Book Week fun continued at Castlefield today with our Year 3 students dressing the part! Amy, Monica and Jaya took inspiration from the book series 'Little People, Big Dreams' and came dressed as inspirational historical figures Amelia Earhart, Ada Lovelace and Frida Kahlo. The students and staff are so happy to be celebrating Book Week on campus together!

16.01.2022 Even though we've been zooming away each day, life is just not the same for our Year 8 teachers at Edrington who really miss seeing the smiling faces of their students in person. We are very excited to have all our students back together on Haileybury campuses next week! We miss you!

16.01.2022 There is still plenty of exploring to be done this year! The City Pre-Prep and Reception children enjoyed a virtual learning experience with the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria Minibeast sessions. This online session allowed the children to explore relationships between plants and insects and how invertebrates help gardens grow.

16.01.2022 Skipping through Term 4! Our Year 5 students at Castlefield enjoyed the opportunity to participate in ‘Thrive in Action’ classes on campus and demonstrated outstanding skills as they hopped, skipped and jumped through the session. A great way to enjoy today's sunshine!

15.01.2022 Our Year 6 girls from Castlefield were very excited to return to campus, where they shared stories and artwork from their online learning experience. In class, the students were finally able to mount and frame their brilliant art, and the results were fantastic!

15.01.2022 Ending the year in style! The Year 8 students at Castlefield celebrated the end of term with a creative design competition. The students planned and sketched their dress patterns using newspaper, considering how their designs would provide functionality and fun. The final pieces are runway ready!

15.01.2022 Today, the Haileybury community acknowledges Remembrance Day and the sacrifices of those who served our country. #RemembranceDay #LestWeForget

15.01.2022 Our ELC children are certainly making the most of this gorgeous spring weather! This week they have enjoyed planting their own gardens with assorted herbs and vegetables. In addition to experiencing the joy of being outdoors, activities such as these help children develop a sense of responsibility. They are also learning about fresh food and the importance of healthy eating.

14.01.2022 Cooking, building, painting, dancing, reflection.the Pre-Senior City Option looked a little different in 2020! In the past, Year 9 students have participated in Haileybury’s Expedition and Options Program, which delivers unforgettable international and local off-campus experiences. Due to safety restrictions, the students were not able to visit Melbourne’s CBD, so the program was redesigned with online learning technology. This jam-packed week saw our Year 9 students get cre...ative with a painting masterclass and refine their culinary skills with the art of pizza making! Fitness was also on the agenda with energetic Zumba classes and virtual visits from exceptional Australian athletes and Old Haileyburians Cody Weightman (OH 2019), Josh Beaver (OH 2011) and Laetisha Scanlan (OH 2007). Students demonstrated that even through distance, we are still linked. The students finished the week by building time capsules reflecting their unique learning experiences this year, which will be returned to them in Year 12.

12.01.2022 Haileybury Newlands Middle School was a happy hive of activity today! It’s been a great start to the week with all students reuniting and enjoying their beloved school grounds. Welcome back!

11.01.2022 It's Up Day at Haileybury! Castlefield's Middle School Boys enjoyed a sample of their Visual Art class where they created self-portrait caricatures in the style of Tim Burton. Using black and white oil pastels, the students produced many fun and spooky artworks! Up Day provides an opportunity for all students entering Years 1 to 7 to meet their new teachers and classes for 2021.

11.01.2022 Today we welcomed our Year 8 and 9 students back to campus! Our Year 8 Students at Edrington made the most of their ‘Thrive in Action’ class to enjoy some fresh air and reconnect with each other after months of online learning.

10.01.2022 Like all our students, Jack fully embraced online learning. But for him, there is a little more distance involved... Jack’s family are currently in NSW, and he has been ‘Zooming’ into lessons remotely. Using technology that automatically follows the classroom participants’ voice and teacher movement, Jack can interact with the class and move around on an iPad swivel stand, which his classmates love! Staff have readily embraced yet another opportunity to supersede geographical limitations, ensuring that Jack’s high-quality education continues.

06.01.2022 This week, our ELC classes celebrated National NAIDOC Week with a range of fun and engaging activities. This was an excellent opportunity for the students to learn more about the history and culture of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. Here you can see Isabella working hard on her artwork, incorporating found elements, nature and animals!

05.01.2022 That Friday feeling! Today our City Junior School finished another great week with a disco, led by resident DJ Mr Williams! The students showcased some epic dance moves and fluro outfits, with social distancing measures in place. A highlight of Term 4 for our students and an excellent opportunity for them to reconnect!

03.01.2022 We love Children's Book Council of Australia's Book Week in the Haileybury Junior School and this year’s ‘Curious Creatures, Wild Minds’ theme has let imaginations run WILD! Students at Edrington have been celebrating all week long with fun activities such as craft groups, author visits via Zoom and today, students joined Head of Campus Mrs Jeanette Rawlings for recess storytime in the library. The Edrington Library will also hold a Virtual Book Fair, offering the joy of reading and the excitement of the fair from the comfort of your home. Best of all, every purchase will support our school library and local businesses!
