Year 2 at Barbreck has been an unforgettable journey filled with learning, creativity, and excitement. 

The year began with an in-depth study of St Catherine’s history, where the girls explored the School’s rich heritage. Touring the campus, they uncovered stories of the past, deepening their connection to the School and fostering pride in its legacy.  

Term 1 featured the Easter Bonnet Parade, where students showcased their creativity with handmade bonnets. This vibrant event brought the community together, celebrating fun and imagination.  

Excitement soared in Term 3 with the Paris Olympic Games inspiring our students’ Geography studies. The girls channelled their enthusiasm into the Barbreck Olympics Day, representing different countries in friendly competition and camaraderie. They explored Australia’s place in the world, learning about our country’s strengths and global position. 

In August, the Book Week Parade brought cherished books to life through imaginative costumes and literature discussions.  

Term 4’s warmer weather led to the highly anticipated Year 2 Beyond Boundaries Camp. The evening and sleepover at School were magical, with dinner, movies, and enchanted tents creating a perfect environment for making memories and new friendships.  

Overall, it was a fantastic year for our Year 2 students. At St Catherine’s, we are proud to provide a nurturing and supportive environment where all our girls are given every opportunity to reach their full potential and be their best self.
