Roll Call: School starts at 8.30 am, but every morning before class we go to a classroom for 10 min, where the teacher “marks the roll” (checks that everybody is there), our school uniform s checked and daily notices are being read. Daily notices are informations we get about for example school photos, reminder about excursions or sport events,... Our year has 5 Roll call classes and at the beginning of the year they divide us in five groups – depending on you last name. Roll call goes from 8.30 – to 8.40 and the first period starts at 8.40.

CC: Certificate of Commendation -

When you do something good, for instance do a great job in your homework or behave good, teachers can give you a CC as a reward. Our school has a level system and after gaining a certain amount of CCs you can get to the next level.

In the end of the year you can get the principal's Award if you gained a certain amount of CCs over the year.

Houses: In our school, there are four houses: Dunk (yellow), Edmondson (green), Davidson(red) and Renold(blue). Everybody is part of a house, according to your last name. You elect a house captain who is the organiser and has the responsibility at sport events. The main sport events are the three Carnivals Swimming, Cross country and athletics. You dress up in your house colours and support your house by cheering and taking part in as many races possible. I am part of the Dunk house which means yellow as colour :)

Swimming Carnival: Every year there is a swimming carnival which takes place in February. It is a whole day where instead of going to school you go to a swimming pool and there are many swimming competitions and also social (fun) races. You dress up in your house colours and it is a competition between the houses. In the end there is going to be a winner, the house who won the most races. Our house – Dunk – won the swimming carnival 2015 :)
