Our speakers included a Physiotherapy student, Specialist Periodontist, Senior Stage Manager, Emergency Doctor, Community Engagement Advisor, Real Estate Partner, and business owner across the food and beverage industry.🌯💲🦷🩺🦵🎤

A huge thank you to Chrissy, Zeff, Gemma, Cameron, Kate, Holly and Nurpur for generously giving their time to connect with our students, answer questions, and share valuable insights and experiences.💡🤝

Our Volleyball Community8⃣♾️

A word from the lovely, supportive, and multi-talented alumna Claire Williams:

Over the weekend, something really special happened within the volleyball community as current students, alumni, coaches, and one of our biggest inspirations, Ms Louise “Batesy” Bates, all came together.🏐💛

For so many of us, Batesy is the reason we thrived and really connected with volleyball. Her passion, leadership, and contribution to the sport have had a lasting impact across hundreds of players. On Saturday, a few of us were lucky enough to play against her team alongside other KHS alumni, and with Luka coaching it made the experience even more meaningful.🥰🙌

Although Batesy was unfortunately injured, Dandenong still came away with the win. Even though a few people from the volleyball community couldn’t make it on the day, it was still special to reconnect and share the experience together.🤝👊

After the game, we took a moment to reflect on everything Batesy has done for our school volleyball program and community - the opportunities she's created for so many students and alumni over the years. Taking a photo beneath her banner felt incredibly special for us alumni and students — a full-circle moment that highlighted the strength and cohesion of the Kew High School volleyball community.📸💫

It was a reminder of how sport can truly bring people together across year levels and generations, and how one person’s influence can be so very impactful.🏐👑

Thanks for sharing this heartfelt reflection, Claire!🫶

Pictured here with Batesy are: Mia Rocca, Nyla Alcide, Sophie Smith, Ashton Ollington-Scammel, Nathan Clough, Claire Williams, Sophie Foster, Casey Clough, Luka Armstrong-Wallis and Liam Hogan, all of whom are playing and coaching at a high level within Victorian volleyball. 🙌🌟

Rohan Represented at National Schools Convention🏛️

Congratulations to Yr.12 Leader, Rohan Hobbs who was selected to attend the 31st National Schools Convention in Canberra last term. 🇦🇺

A total of 113 students from across the country attended the convention, where they analysed a section of the Constitution, debated key issues, formed arguments, and voted in the same structure as a referendum. This year’s focus was Section 53 relating to the powers of the Senate.🗳️

The convention provided an outstanding opportunity for students to hear a diverse range of perspectives on topics that will shape their future.💬

Rohan said, “I had a great time in Canberra, a highlight was definitely meeting students representing every state and territory. The program was jam packed — in the three days we went to Parliament House to watch question time and meet politicians, listened to countless constitutional experts on the issue we worked on, were received by the Governor-General, sat in at the National Press Club, and toured Old Parliament House. If you’re interested in legal studies or politics, I’d 100% recommend applying.” 👏✨

Interested students are encouraged to speak to Ms Gabrielle Sheridan for more information.📖🙌

Our New Farmwall🌱🐟🥥🔄

Following our highly successful Sustainability Summit on Friday, we’re continuing to spotlight the importance of designing, creating, and implementing regenerative systems at school, at home, and within our local community — and we’re excited to introduce our new Farmwall!🌱💚

This aquaponic system - located in our STEM Centre near the Food Tech rooms and canteen - is already growing highly nutritious microgreens, which staff and students can harvest to add to their lunches and food tech classes - first food tech harvest happening tomorrow!🍕😋

Today, we also welcomed four fish into the system. They play an important role in naturally fertilising the water and keeping the tank healthy.🐟🩵

We’re looking forward to sharing our Farmwall with the school community — an interactive way learn, teach, connect, grow and enjoy sustainable practices and healthy food together.😊

Thank you to Cooper for composting the microgreens that were harvested and eaten by many primary students who were part of our Summit on Friday.🙏🏼👊🏽
