With our growing school and moving classrooms it hasn’t always been easy to hear the bell signalling the start and finish of our times of the day. An initial idea was sewn from Jewels which was passed onto our Woodwork teacher Gill about the building of a bell tower to a more central location. Our current Class 8 students certainly ran with the idea under Gill's instruction. Plans were drawn, resources questioned, and costs were factored.

The students built models of their group's bell tower design and along with Gill’s support mounted proposals for our judgement panel - Principal Eliza and Bursar Oona. Eliza and Oona were most impressed with each groups proposal and presentation, which was pitched to our leadership team along with the Class 7 students. All students spoke with great confidence, knowledge and answered many questions regarding their bell tower design.

It was wonderful to watch the students hold the space and the thoughtful questions posed by our Class 7 and 8 students. Thank you Gill for enabling the high school students to present their proposals.

Watch this space.
