Full line-up at this year's Prossie's Got Talent

The crowd enjoyed our annual Prossie's Got Talent show on the last day of term, with performances from students across all year levels. This year's winners were a tie between our Year 12 duo Kaydee Miller and Domink James- Johnson and our Year 7 student Vince Radford. Kaydee and Dominik sang their hearts out, while Vince's djing skills impressed the crowd and had them dancing along to his tunes.

Our students had to guess which of our talented staff were performing in the Masked Singer division which included performances by Mr Casey, Mrs Crear and Miss Daly. The final act from a group of our teachers was made even more special with a health message about the impact of using e-cigarettes.  

Well done to our Senior Student Council for an entertaining event enjoyed by all. Thank you to our judges and to Mr Casey along with our Seagrass Theatre and Music Company students who supported behind-the-scenes to ensure all ran smoothly.

Inclusivity Week an exciting new initiative

Article written by Danni Muller

This year, our Social Cultural Committee proudly launched Inclusivity Week, a new initiative designed to bring our school community together and celebrate diversity. The goal was simple: to create opportunities for students to connect, collaborate, and ensure that everyone felt welcome and involved.

During Care Group, classes put their knowledge to the test in the Cultural Quiz, tackling a wide range of questions about traditions and customs from around the world. At lunchtime, the fun continued on the oval with games from different cultures including Bocci, Kubb, and boomerang throwing.

It was fantastic to see so many students getting involved, enjoying themselves, and learning something new along the way. Inclusivity Week was a great success, and we’re excited to build on this momentum to make next year’s event even better.

Students celebrate success in positive program

We are thrilled to announce the successful graduation of the latest cohort from our Renavigating Angry and Guilty Emotions (RAGE) Intervention program!

RAGE us a tailored support program that works through various ways of dealing with challenges through the use of practical resources. This graduation marks a positive step forward for the boys and we are incredibly proud of the commitment they’ve shown throughout the program. We look forward to seeing what they achieve in the future.

Fyn doing well balancing Year 12 & Enduro Racing

Article by Fyn Gunn

Over the past few months, my life has been anything but quiet. Between tackling six ATAR subjects at school and competing in one of the toughest motorsports in Australia—hard enduro dirt bike racing—I’ve been testing both my brain and my endurance.

When people hear “dirt bike racing,” they often picture thrill-seekers doing wheelies, burnouts, or just messing around. But hard enduro couldn’t be more different. It’s a professional discipline that demands focus, preparation, and grit. I train seven days a week—cardio, strength, and flexibility in the gym—while riding three to four times weekly. All that effort is for the chance to perform at my absolute best in brutal four-hour-plus races… which, believe it or not, we call fun!

National and State-Level Success

Since my last update, I’ve raced two more rounds of the national series, finishing second in both. These results have kept me in strong contention for the Expert Class National Championship.

This year also introduced the very first Queensland Hard Enduro Series. I stepped up to the premier Pro Class for the challenge. In Round 1, I placed seventh—further back than I’d hoped—but in Round 2, everything clicked. I secured second place for the weekend, earning third overall in the Queensland Championship. Standing on that podium along my idols was truly a dream come true.

Along with this being my best result so far, this race in particular puts the sport into perspective: it took me four and a half hours to complete just one lap, averaging only 4 km/h. 

Looking Ahead

Next on the calendar is Round 4 at Sand Hill, NSW, taking place at the end of this term. It’s the second-last round of the national series, and I’m determined to push even harder. I couldn’t do any of this without the incredible support of my sponsors—both long-time partners and new additions: Style Cycle, Wurx, EvoPrime Fitness, LK Strength, Ocean Rafting, and Ride Whitsundays.

Students stride to excellence at championships

Our students Shailee Mewha and Millie Groom represented Queensland at the School Sport Australia Cross Country Championships earlier this month at Runaway Bay. 

Shailee competed in the 13-years 3km event and placed eigth in Australia and was the third Queenslander across the line. The 13-years Queensland girls were the second state across the finish line so they received a silver medal in the team event.

Two days later, Shailee competed with the Queensland 13-years girls in the relay and finished in first place receiving a gold medal.

Millie did exceptionally well also placing fifth in her age group, a result she was especially happy with being her first time competing at the event. 

The duo are looking forward to competing at the Athletics State Trials in October. We wish you both the best of luck!
