Peter Carnley Anglican Community School (PCACS)

2024 It Takes a Spark! STEM Conference

Thank you to KIC for the wonderful opportunities for our students.

As part of the Chinese New Year🐉celebrations at PCACS, we had a Lion Dance performed by the 'Chung Wah Association' on Friday 23 February. It was a wonderful opportunity for Junior School students to explore Chinese performing art and Chinese New Year traditions. Two dancing lions and loud music ward off evil spirits. Oranges and lettuce are shared to bring good fortune to our students and the school. Two students from both Wellard and Calista campuses, represented PCACS to receive scrolls. All our students enjoyed interacting with the Lions! 🐉 #pcacslife #pcacs #education #schools #chinesenewyear

The PCACS Interhouse Swimming Carnival 🔴🟡🟢🔵was a great success last Friday, with students demonstrating wonderful team spirit for their peers and delivering their absolute personal best. Lindbeck was the victorious House🏆on the day. All students should be commended for their amazing efforts, both in and outside of the pool.🏊♀️ Thank you to all the PCACS staff and students who helped organised this fun event. #pcacslife #swimming #education #schools #carnival

Yesterday, the Year 7 students held stick insects.🦗 Mrs Lawrence is an animal enthusiast and has many of these insects in her Science room. PCACS students get the opportunity to study insect anatomy and their behaviors, though holding these insects can be quite an emotional challenge. These wonderful hands on learning experiences, help students to understand the diversity and importance that insects play in our ecosystem. #pcacs #pcacslife #education #schools #insects #biology #science

On Thursday 8 February, the Senior School Peer Support Leaders were announced at an assembly. These Year 10 Leaders will work alongside the Year 7's in Compass to help support their transition into Senior School. This was followed by the Principal, Ms Felicity House, revealing the new House Patron banners that have been in the re design process since last year. These banners were carefully and respectfully re designed to better represent the House Patrons and the colour of each House. Mr Wallace, along with the sports teachers spoke of the amazing success of The PCACS Basketball Academy Tournament in Melbourne, stating that the students perfectly upheld the school's values and demonstrated true grit, resilience and wonderful sportsmanship. Special guest, Reverend David Jones - Co-ordinator of Samoan Service Learning for the Anglican Schools Commission, spoke about the upcoming Service Learning Tour in Samoa which is inviting Year 9 and 10 PCACS students to attend.
