Animation and Gaming Info Session

On Wednesday the 10th of April Ms Samuels organised a career's talk and information session for students who may be interested in working in the digital realm of animation and gaming. We were extremely lucky to have a local lady, Jen Dickinson, who is the Animation Director at Flying Bark in the Blue Mountains. She works on "Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur". Jen spoke to a select group of students from stage 5 and 6 about the work she has done, how to work in the digital animation and gaming industries along with examples of her work and who to contact. The talk was full of fantastic information for the students who had an opportunity to ask Mrs Dickinson further questions about digital careers. The students thoroughly enjoyed the talk and discussion.

ANZAC Day

Our school captains and student representatives were proudly involved in the ANZAC day march. During the march Patrick Cole represented Oberon High as the flag bearer and our captains, Ella Robinson, Maegan Weatherstone and Caelan Levanic laid a wreath at the cenotaph. Our school honours all community members, past and present, who have served in the armed forces.

First Day of Term 2!

We welcomed 4 new students to our Joey's family. We played with our new footy post. We enjoyed being reunited with our friends and teachers. We shared tales of our holiday adventures. There is fresh paint around the school. Our school grounds look amazing. What a wonderful first day back!
