A great night at the 2012 Deb Ball

A last minute invitation saw me turning up at the yr11 Deb Ball. And what a night it was.

Approximately 30 beautiful couples dancing on the floor to music of the decade. The boys looks very refined and the girls looked like beautiful ladies.

I couldn’t believe how much they had grown, since the first day Miss Fogarty and I had set eyes on them in the year 7 Annex. In particular the girls looked years above their age. Their dresses were beautiful. Each had it’s own flavor and style that reflected the personality of it’s owner.

As the dancing begins, and the audience of parents, friends and teachers are captivated by the choreography. Smiles on the students, glistened from the floor. Flashes and tears from the parents at the realization that their children were well on their way to becoming young adults.

At the conclusion of the choreographed pieces, students were asked to find a person to dance with. Disappointed by the passing of a few students, I stayed in my chair. Apparently they ‘had’ to ask their Mums first.

It wasn’t long before the band was playing and I was dragged to the dance floor. Surrounded by white dresses and free flowing spirits, we were able ‘bust a move’.

I stayed till the end, walking out of the door with Mr. Manks. And watched the last couple of tired faces file into their cars. I had a great time and was glad I got the opportunity to attend.

See you soon. Miss Hall :)

It’s important to congratulate students when they have been successful- no matter what it is and whether it’s within or outside of school hours.

My dear friend, Rebekah S., performed an original song called, ‘Not Coming Back‘, on Channel 7′s The Morning Show on Tuesday 28th February. Many students within the college supported Rebekah whilst she was performing by watching and admiring her talent live in the Multi-media Room. On a personal level, a HUGE congratulations is in order! To observe such a close friend transform from a shy girl into a confident, astonishing young lady is inspiring. Her voice is incredibly unique and I could not possibly be more proud of her, along with many fellow students and staff.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with who I am and my role within the college, my name is Carly T. and I am one of your Senior Student Leaders for 2012. My position involves updating this blog regularly to provide an understanding of what it’s like behind the eyes of a student at Mount Erin. If you happen to have anything you would personally like to share, feel free to contact me and I will do my best to publicise what you please. I will be taking on the role of an ASPIRE Journalist and will be an Assembly Coordinator/MC for 2012. 

Starting Year 12 can be quite daunting at first. This year there will be ups and downs, but it is significant to remember not to lose track of who you are and where you wish to be within the years to come. Sometimes in life, we will break down, there will be moments where you may get ‘caught up’ in your own little world and feel as though you’re falling behind in your work. My best advice to you all, is to use your time wisely – those of you who have study periods, make sure you’re making the most of them; you’d be surprised how much you can get done within a period!

Never let anybody stop you from what it is you want to achieve. My aim this year is to help all of you embrace your talent; whether it’s writing, singing, photography, sport, anything! If you have accomplished some form of achievement, contact me and I will inform staff and our fellow students! I want to bring our college together as a community as opposed to having distant year levels. Age should never be an issue in regards to communicating. Let’s make 2012 one of our best schooling years! 

I look forward to hearing from you all and seeing your faces around the college. 

Please don’t hesitate to approach me and say hello :)

Kind regards, 

iCarly (Year 12)

YEAR 8 SCIENCE STUDENTS EAT CELLS

As part of science this term Year 8 students had the opportunity to design, make and then eat either an animal or plant cell. The choice of cell determined which biscuit they started with, round for animals & square for plants. Barley sugars, bullets, smarties, icing sugar, snakes, mint leaves and Jelly Beans have been used to represent different cellular organelles. Have a look at how they turned out, and they tasted good as well.

Be my Valentine…

The Student Leadership Team have made an outstanding start to 2012. Cupids delivered 115 roses to romantics around the college and every one of our students had an opportunity to have a free sausage and drink, courteousy of the MESEM army of student volunteers.

Ably lead by Chris L., Chris C., Ellie B., Tawanda Z. and Jay A., the new team introduced itself to the hungry hoardes, one year level at a time in our Rotunda. I am confident their sacrifice and hard work to make this series of BBQ’s was greatly appreciated.

Similarly, a committed team consisting of Ellie W., Ellie B., Sarah F., Emily B., Hayden L., Jarryd W., and Jamie T. set the college aflame with love and friendship, as symbolised in a long-stem rose delivered during class time. This light-hearted fun was made possible thanks to the generous support of Eliza Flowers.

Student leaders can make a positive impact on the everyday culture of our college. Please enjoy the photos and celebrate their successful start to the 2012 academic year.

MESEM leaders now prepare for the upcoming 3 on 3 Basketball Tournaments (beginning in Week 7) and its annual “Shave to save Lives” event, to be held on Tuesday March 27th. With 14 confirmed students to have their heads shaved for a cure for cancer, this years shave event promises to be the best yet!

Students are also advised that with Mount Erin Idol scheduled to begin in mid-term 2, auditions have already begun. Student coordinators for the event Sarah F. and Carly T. report that 13 of the 25 available spots have already been filed. With so much to look forward to, we hope Mount Erin students take every opportunity to fully support the student leadership team who make these events possible. Silva.
