22.01.2022 The Year 11 Child Studies class has been busy crafting "Gift Packs" for new borns. Their assessment task was to make sure at least 3 items were handmade. Some of their ideas have been teddy bears, pillows and blankets. One student has already completed it and donated it to the Womens and Childrens Hospital.

20.01.2022 Our Year 10s performed an investigative practical around the reactivity of Alkaline Earth metals in water. This is a reaction of magnesium metal in water with a phenolphthalein indicator. As the reaction requires heat to accelerate, Hydrogen Gas is emitted and the test turns pink meaning Magnesium Oxide is produced.

10.01.2022 Last day of Year 8 Camp (Friday). Most of us were not ready to go home yet! Highlights today were: knee boarding, burgers for lunch, catamaraning, stand up paddle boarding, hanging out with friends and thinking of seeing our families soon. We had an awesome camp. Praise God for good weather, great memories, and lovely people to hang out with. #bettertogether

10.01.2022 Some delicious aromas have been wafting through the College. Our Year 11s assessment task was to create a new winter menu as if they were to run a canteen, keeping in mind the Government regulations on health and safety. It looks yummy!

10.01.2022 As part of our curriculum, our students get to choose a Service Learning group and are involved in certain activities every Tuesday afternoon. Service to others without expecting anything in return is enriching and fulfilling and also teaches our students a few life skills along the way. Here are just a few Service Learning categories: Gardening (this is also done at various neighbours homes), Creating puppet shows for St Helens Kindergarten, and car washing. The students have a lot of fun doing it and its a nice break away from the books each week.

08.01.2022 Having a great time so far. Canoeing and Hiking with the sun on our backs, but have also experienced patches of wet weather. Lots of wildlife around, wallabies, koalas, kangaroos, snakes, many many birds and lots of cheeky possums. All of the students are in great spirits and have made some lifelong connections on this trip. One last night camping and then home tomorrow! ~Mr Davies

08.01.2022 Online learning is now live! The students that are staying home are able to access their lessons via Zoom. The virtual classrooms enable students to watch and ask questions and work along with their other classmates in real-time. It is going extremely well.

08.01.2022 Highlights from day 2 of Year 8 camp included: knee boarding, kayaking, sailing, stand up paddle boarding, dinner and EVERYTHING! We are having SO MUCH FUN! :)

08.01.2022 Announcement: Taking the best advice that is available from our own system, the government agencies and the Association of Independent Schools, due to the Covid19 gathering restrictions, Prescott College will be postponing our upcoming Open Days.

Please contact the office to book your family in for a tour of our campus at a time convenient for you. We look forward to meeting you in the near future.

07.01.2022 Hello Prescott Community! I hope everyone is keeping safe and healthy in this time of isolation! If you are feeling like you need a little help feeling motivated, join us in our Prescott College Bingo Challenge! Students and staff were emailed this yesterday, so that is our official start time, and we will end next Tuesday - the 28th of April! Try and get some Bingos along the way (5 in a row), but ultimately let us know if you were able to get them ALL complete by Tuesday... next week! :) Good luck and all the best! See more
