The children were challenged, inspired and engaged by this opportunity and the culmination of their day included a rehearsal with our high school students and they also got to record their songs!... Thank you to Mr Bray and Mr Hunter for coming on their days off, to help support the students. Thank you to Miss Deady for sharing your professional teaching and conducting skills. We are lucky to have Miss Deady at MSHS as our Instrumental Music Coordinator.

21.01.2022 BYOxLink..... The Education Department is rolling out a new BYOx connection solution (BYOXLink) and is scheduled to be setup at Maroochydore SHS this September school holidays. In preparation for this new network, all BYOx students will need to prepare by enrolling their device with 'Intune', the Department's secure mobile management system that allows students to access the school network and learning applications. This enrolment process is relatively quick and should be co...mpleted from home anytime from now up until the start of Term 4. Devices that haven't been enrolled before Term 4 will no longer connect but can be easily connected at any time, however, to ensure there is no disruption to learning we ask that this process is completed as soon as possible. [You will need to use Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.] Please refer to email sent to parents for further details. Note: Students must know both their computer's password and their school email address and password before beginning this process. Video guides: For Windows: https://maroochydoreshs.eq.edu.au//Windows-Intune-connecti For MAC: https://maroochydoreshs.eq.edu.au//Mac-Intune-connection-g When complete, the device will continue to connect to the current BYOx network and will not require any further actions before the new network is switched on next term. For additional support, students should visit the IT helpdesk in the Resource Centre during opening hours (before school, first break and second break every day).

17.01.2022 WHAT IS VIVO? INFORMATION FOR MAROOCHYDORE SHS PARENTS MSHS is trialling a system to encourage and reward effort and positive behaviour that promotes Learning, Respect and Safety. It’s called VIVO and will be used for all Year 7 and 9 students during Term 3. Students have been informed about the VIVO rewards process via Care classes, year level assemblies and subject teachers.... Teachers have been awarding students with electronic awards points called VIVOs. Accrued VIVOs will be used by students to claim rewards and prizes, including sports equipment, movie vouchers and food during week 10 of Term 3. Students have been given a personalised VIVO user name and password so they can check their VIVOs. The VIVO shop was opened on 31 August, so students could see the range of rewards and prizes available. For more information about VIVO, check out the VIVO website: https://www.vivoclass.com.au/skills/about.html
