Slade Literary Award

The Rotary Club of Richmond in partnership with Mark Slade sponsored the 23rd Annual Slade Literary Award. 

The Slade Award dates back to 1993 when Henry Slade founded the competition to encourage literary skills and celebrate

the writing of students in state schools within the City of Yarra and neighbouring municipalities. This year the theme was

'Being Human' and student writing was judged by a panel culminating in a wonderful presentation evening on Monday, 29 August.

We congratulate Patrick Widdop who received an honourable mention for his story called, 'Harm'.

RUOK? Day 2016

We hope that you got to chat to people you wouldn’t normally talk to and were inspired to ask “are you ok?” more often of mates who need some extra support.

If you ever need some tips talking to someone who might be struggling, check out these tips: https://www.ruok.org.au/ask-a-mate

You can also access national helplines here: https://www.ruok.org.au/findhelp. We raised $233 and this will be donated to R U OK?

 And remember: A conversation could change a life.

A long time in the making, the Music Department is proud to present this talented and hard-working bunch of young musicians launching Princes Hill Songwriters Volume 2!

A limited number of copies will be available for purchase on the night, or you can pre-order from the trybooking link below. Some preorders were made at the fundraising concert in term 1. All pre-orders will be available for pick up on the night.

Each student will perform one or more of their original songs, and there will be other student songwriters and vocal ensembles making guest appearances. Come on down to the music department on Friday August 19, 6:30 pm. Grab a sausage, grab a CD, and listen to these fine young singers perform their songs that I can guarantee you will be humming for weeks to come!

Please congratulate Sam and Joe Ronfeldt, Jasmine De Palma, Matt Brophy, Spencer Durham and Andrea Corsini. They have won every round of debating this year and should be congratulated for their determination  and dedication to the competition.

The A grade students missed out on the finals but had a great season and should also be congratulated on their efforts. As well as keeping up with their studies they have also worked really well on their preparation for their debates, Sarah Becarri, Ben Gerster and Grace Averill.
