Good luck, Noah!
This week, our Year 5 and Year 6 teams met teams from Hong Kong, New Zealand and across Australia online as part of their training for the Junior International Ethics Olympiad in June.
They spent the morning looking at cases studies and developing their ethical understanding and critical thinking skills.
Our students were very fortunate to have this opportunity to stretch their thinking and to engage with 鈥榬eal鈥� philosophers from the US and UK.
The Year 5 and Year 6 International Junior Ethics Olympiad is part of our school enrichment program.
During Flourish lessons this week, students in Years 6-7 and Years 10-12 have worked on Anzac Day reflection activities. The Year 6 and 7 classes created artworks for display and Years 10-12 coloured silhouettes.
The Cafeteria windows and those in the Cottesloe and Floreat buildings have been adorned with the artwork and we are sure you will agree that our students have created a beautiful reflective space to commemorate Anzac Day.
This term our Year 9 Art students have been tie-dying and block printing large cotton cushion covers. Seen here are a number of students sewing the final touches onto their cushion covers. Students will be taking these home this term to fill with a pillow to create a comfortable cushion for themselves to relax on these holidays.
The Year 9鈥檚 have been making and icing Easter biscuits as part of Home Economics. During this term their focus has been on:

We would like to thank the Primary School community for their outstanding support of our food donation drive for the Grace Caf茅- Drop Centre, which is part of the Grace Anglican Church in Joondalup.

The GC Council will be working with the Grace Caf茅 - Drop Centre later in the year as part of an ongoing initiative with the Grace Anglican Church.
For the last week of term, our Busselton space has been the home to powerful images, each two metres high, depicting the faces and stories of 20 homeless West Australians. The exhibition titled 鈥楨ye Contact鈥� by photographer Phil England encouraged viewers to recognise the humanity in homeless people with the aim of changing attitudes in our community and to help consider how we can help less fortunate people.
As a Rotary Clubs of Perth and Heirisson initiative, this exhibition has enabled our 成人短片's community to visit, read and reflect on the confronting stories of homelessness.

The Anglican Schools Commission International is looking for caring families to host regional, interstate and international students intending to study at 成人短片鈥檚 Anglican Community School.
A home stay provides a student with the opportunity to live in a home setting, taking away some of the stresses of living away from family. It also gives them insight into Australian culture and the chance to further build their English language skills. In return, your family with have the opportunity to learn more about your guest's home country and expand your own global horizons. Many lifelong friendships are built through home stays, and it can be very rewarding both the host family and the student. Hosts are also paid a weekly fee.
With the WA borders reopening this week, many students are looking to travel to Perth and the majority of these will need home stay families. If you would like to find out more about hosting a regional, interstate or international student, please contact the ASCI's Accommodation Coordinator at homestay@asci.edu.au.
