Mrs McNally had Year 3 create colour wheels. 

Year 11 and 12 Legal Studies students went on an excursion to the Supreme Court of NSW. The students had the privilege of meeting with the Honourable Justice Lucy McCallum, a justice from the Court of Criminal Appeal. Her Honour provided students with inspirational advice on the legal system, the study of law, and each student from St Bishoy College took the opportunity to ask Her Honour a question about the Australian legal system. The students also witnessed a murder trial as well as a number of bail hearings. It was an incredibly valuable experience for the students and I was proud of the level of maturity they displayed on the day. 

We had the pleasure of hosting a group of students from Japan! Our students had a great time getting to know them and learning about their culture.
