What a day, what a term! Today we celebrated Cultural Festival, the absolute highlight of term three. The iCentre hosted a quiet space to read in the rooftop gardens, and it's secretly the best place to dance to the @mtakedron @paduacollege_official band! Happy end of term everyone.

If your client takes a selfie with you, does this mean that your project was a success? We would say yes!
Early in the Term Year 11 Design Students were asked to develop a product, service or solution for an issue identified by a client, and in this case their client was the iCentre. The brief was to design study spaces in the iCentre, with students’ needs at the forefront. Yesterday Ms Stower was presented with proposals and prototypes of the students ideas and solutions. Ms Stower was very impressed with the consideration given to the stakeholders needs - our students - in the proposed designs. (Now if we could only build the collaborative whiteboard table…….).

Heres Ms Everard with her much loved Kindle!

The Principals Reading Challenge has brought out the competitive spirit for some students and staff! Pets have been recruited in the pursuit of points and we've been featuring some in our Insta stories. Maybe it's the Olympic spirit that has pushed some to aim for greatness, maybe it's the allure of bragging rights and a pizza party. Who knows? #Read #learn #love #grow #share #petsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #catsofinstagram #principalsreadingchallenge #PRC #MtAiCentre #mtakedron #studentsneedschoollibraries #librarylife #librariansrock
