Our Outstanding Debaters Move Into the Finals!

Congratualtions to both of our debating teams for winning all of their debates in their zones. Lara B was the only team in their zone to achieve this and so have automatically moved to the inter-zone final (date to be advised). Well done!

Lara A will compete with Geelong College this Wednesday afternoon to decide the winner of their zone as both teams won all of their debates. If they are successful they will also move to the inter-zone final.

If these teams win in their inter-zone final they will move to the grand final! (It's possible that they may compete against each other!)

Good luck and well done!

UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!
Congratulations to the Lara A team for their success in their intra-zone final. An exrta well done goes to Annie for her best speaker award. They now progress to the inter-zone final against...Lara B! So Lara A will be debating with Lara B in a couple of weeks (date and time to be confirmed) for a spot in the competition Grand Final! This means that at least one of our teams will make it through to the final round! Great effort guys!

Term 4 in the LG Building

Term 4 is shaping up to be massive in the LG building! We have plenty of fun and busy events to look forward to and heaps of things to get done before the Year Sixes move on to secondary school and our Year Fives take over as our school leaders.
 
Some highlights will include:
 
- Competing in our chosen sports against other schools in the Summer Lightning Premiership (Wednesday 29th of October).
 
- Busting some moves with students from other schools at the Blue Light Disco run by Victoria Police (Wednesday 19th of November).
 
- Preparing and practicing for our Year Six Graduation performance (Thursday night, 18th of December).
 
- Orientation and transition for Grade Sixes as they prepare to move to their new secondary schools.
 
- Year 5 students will go through the process of applying for and voting for 2015 school captains.
 
- Visiting other classrooms and learning new skills as part of our procedural writing rotations.
 
Wow! It might seem like a lot to get done and things might seem very busy, but that's what we love about life in the LG Building.
 
Stay tuned for more details of upcomming events and for photos and reports of events as they occur.
