MYP Tech Challenge – Teacher Supervision
As an early warning for your planning, the MYP inter house Tech Challenge is rapidly approaching. It will be block 5 on Friday March 20th. This is day 4.
Here are the teacher supervision groups. Please let me know if you spot any problems.
Helping Non Native Students Understand What You Say 4:
Try not to use idioms and colloquial expressions. Non native students often translate these expressions literally. For example, a teacher might say “Take a stab at it,” to encourage a student; the non native students could be very confused. Which idioms/colloquial expressions do you use in class?
Meet Dean of Science, Professor Trevor Hambley Lecture and presentation about the University. Q&A available about Australian university life.
If you are taking a science at Gr11 or 12, then this will be relevant for you – oh, wait, that’s everyone! Grade 10s welcome for an early view of what University is all about….
Do you like Pie?!
Do you like Math?!
Do you like circles even though they have no point?!
Or do you fancy all three?!
On Friday, March 13th the Student Council will be auctioning pies and other delicious circular foods such as Pizza or Cake. We will be auctioning both during break and lunch, and all proceeds will be split for donation into the Pfrang Association and the Amy Yang Fund. If you are interested bring some cash and come to the foyer tomorrow!

MYP/DP students:
Do you have any Language A novels studying sitting around at home? Maybe you’re using them as inventive door-stoppers, or perhaps they’re collecting dust on a shelf?
If so, PLEASE bring them back to school, and give them to your ever grateful Language A teachers.
Thank you!
