ART CLUB IN THE SUNSHINE | Our Art Club students recently enjoyed a wonderful afternoon in the sunshine at Normanton House. Surrounded by the peaceful gardens, students explored the art of charcoal still-life drawing. Working with nature al light and the beautiful outdoor setting, they practised observing carefully and capturing detail, texture, and shadow in their artwork.

For many, this was their first time experimenting with charcoal, and they enjoyed discovering how the medium can be used to create strong contrasts and expressive lines. It was inspiring to see students so engaged, supporting each other, and taking pride in their developing skills.

If your child from Year 2 -8 is interested in signing up for Term 4 please contact Anita Arnold or Sarah Lanham via email - Sarah.L@ncc.qld.edu.au

YEAR 5 CAMP | The Year 5 adventure began with an incredible lunch at the campsite to fuel our bodies for the action-packed camp at Luther Heights, Coolum. From the moment we arrived, the excitement didn’t stop— our days were filled with unforgettable activities that not only challenged us but also strengthened the friendships and connections within our cohort.

Team-based activities such as Crate Climb, Raft-building, Rogaining (a mix of orienteering and problem-solving), and the Catapult Quest gave us the chance to practise working together toward a shared goal. Personal challenges like the Koala Climb and Zip Line/Flying Fox pushed us beyond our comfort zones, helping us overcome fears and discover new levels of courage and determination.

Evenings were just as memorable, with an array of varied talents in the inaugural Year 5 Talent Quest that had the audience in stitches of laughter and in awe of the talents of their peers. Between the fun, the laughter, and the delicious meals, every moment at camp was made special by the joy of being together.

This camp was more than just a few days away from school—it was a journey of teamwork, self-discovery, and lasting memories. Students came away with boosted confidence, stronger friendships, and valuable life lessons they will carry with them well into the future.

YEAR 8 BOYS CAMP | Last week, our Year 8 boys embarked on their annual camp to Emu Gully, engaging with the camp theme of “Stepping Up.” The focus of the camp was to encourage each student’s growth as they begin their journey into early manhood, developing responsibility, resilience, and teamwork along the way.

Over three action-packed days, these values came to life through challenges such as hauling heavy tyres through mud pits, scaling steep cliffs, crawling under the cover of night to capture objectives, and even driving buggies—a definite highlight!

The boys also demonstrated growth in quieter but equally important ways: through thoughtful reflections in debrief sessions, working together to prepare and clean up meals, setting up and packing down camp sites, and being prepared for their daily activities. It was in these simple actions that themes of responsibility and service to others was best revealed, which is also displayed as a key characteristic of Jesus’ own character and actions as stated in Mark 10:45: For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve.

Although there were some steep learning curves along the way, we are encouraged by the many boys who rose to the challenge, embraced the camp experience, and showed maturity in their actions. These moments of growth and accomplishment are the true legacy of the 2025 Year 8 Boys Camp.
