    Bushfire Appeal results

    Thank you to our College community for your overwhelming support of our recent bushfire appeal.

    With your help, we raised more than $3,000 in cash donations for BlazeAid to support farmers who lost fences in the Bunyip bushfires.

    The funds will help pay for materials, hire appropriate fencing workers and provide their meals as well as buy feed for animals.

    Also donated, were seven cookware sets from the Lewis family – valued in total at $8,820.

    Thank you all for your generosity.

    Family fights energy poverty

    Middle School student Michael Lorne was so inspired by lessons on energy poverty, that he involved his extended family in the College Solar Buddy program!

    Purchasing 10 kits from the College, Michael taught his family members how to assemble them, so that they could make their way to students around the world.

    Beaconhills joins National Day of Action

    Beaconhills College has added its voice to the National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence (NDA).

    Today is Australia’s key anti-bullying event for schools. To mark the event, students at both campuses are taking part in a range of activities designed to promote respectful relationships.

    Student wellbeing is a priority at Beaconhills College. To further enhance its wellbeing program, Beaconhills has launched a Bullying and Unacceptable Behaviours Action Plan, following extensive research and consultation. It includes a Code of Conduct, based on the College values of respect, compassion and integrity, to be displayed in every classroom.

    Students can now also can use a link on the College’s portal and student app to report and gain support if they’re experiencing or witnessing unacceptable behaviours.

    This year’s NDA theme is ‘Bullying. No way! Take action every day.’

    Beaconhills ‘blues’ are bound for Bunyip

    Beaconhills staff have high hopes for this bumper crop of Queensland Blue pumpkins. Year 9 teacher and keen gardener David Knip plans to enter them for judging in the upcoming Bunyip Agricultural Show.

    College gardener Tony Kimber, pictured left with David Knip, was happy to reveal his secrets to growing the big blues: “keep soil well-fertilised, use sheep pellets and cow manure and turn it over with a rotavator once a year”.

    Organically-grown fruit and vegetables from Beaconhills’ gardens are used in the school canteen menus, at Little Beacons Learning Centre and donated to local charities.
