Description/Educative Purpose: Year 12 OES will be collecting data from our local environment. This will include visiting spots along the Dandenong Creek Trail and surrounding areas to collect primary data for their logbooks, which is a requirement in this course. We will also be chatting to the ‘Friends of the Dandenong Creek Trail group’ to learn about their goals and current projects. This will be during our class time and will not impact on any other classes. Students do not need to bring anything other than a pen and a water bottle. |
Dear Heathmont Community,
We are running a number of fundraising opportunities this year including a series of BBQ sausage sizzles at Ringwood Bunnings throughout July and August. This is an incredible opportunity for Parents, Guardians, Carers, Staff, Students, Families and Friends to come together to work for the betterment of our school’s Performing Arts facilities including purchasing much needed air conditioning for the theatre, backstage communications equipment and microphones.
The sausage sizzles will run from 9:00am – 4:00pm on the following dates:
Sunday 13th July
Sunday 20th July
Sunday 3rd August
Sunday 10th August
To participate and show support you can either come and buy some sausages to support Heathmont College or volunteer your time to help run the BBQ.
If you are interested in volunteering your time, please contact me via email christine.mcfarlane2@education.vic.gov.au. I will be organising a schedule for volunteers to do shifts, we require three people to run the BBQs at any given time.
Thanks in advance for your ongoing support.
Kindest regards,
Christine McFarlane
Year 9 Coordinator | Arts Curriculum Area Leader
