Finishing equal 2nd overall (with his only loss to the current Australian Champion!), Sonny has now earned a place on the Open Queensland Team alongside seasoned chess masters.

REAL-LIFE LEARNING AT THE AG FARM: YEAR 2 LAUNCHES "WATCH IT GROW" | Last Friday, the Year 2 cohort ventured down to the NCC Ag Farm to launch their new Science & Health unit, Watch It Grow. In a perfect example of cross-curricular learning, students explored the needs of living things—food, water, shelter, air, and space—by engaging directly with the animals on campus. Students visited the school’s chickens and, with the support of some of our Year 8 Berakah Miniature Show Team students, also had the chance to meet the school horses.
The older students helped guide and explain how we care for these animals, making the experience both interactive and meaningful. It was a beautiful example of how learning can come alive when classrooms extend beyond four walls. The visit not only deepened understanding of science and health concepts but also celebrated care, stewardship, and working together across year levels.
A wonderful morning of collaboration and discovery! - Mr D Ossevoort, Ag Science Teacher ... See MoreSee Less
