The principal
talking about leaving Primary School.
By Ano
On Thursday December 4th, Year 6 all
went to their High School Orientation Day. Examples of High Schools
they went to were Makellar Girls, Balgowlah Boys, Narabeen Sports,
Forest, Manly and
Cromer.
I went to Cromer Cromer High School
and it was really exciting and fun and my group number was 8.
Well when I got introduced to my
group the two School Captains showed us
around the school and then we got our Christmas cards, well heaps of my
friends were there.
I think it was a great experience to
make a lot of friends and get know more about high school next year.

On Thursday the 4th of December 2003
most of the Year 6 had their Hight School Orientation Day. I had my
orientation day at Mackellar Girls High School. Other kids had their's
at Manly High, Mackellar, Cromer and Narrabeen Sports.
I listened to the teacher's and the
Principal while my dad bought my uniform and my books for next year.
The Year 10 Peer Support Leaders showed us around the classrooms and
the play area. They also showed us how to use the Mackellar timetable.
At the end we did a couple of small
chats and we went back to the hall where we had our parents waiting and
went back to school.
When I get to high school I would
like to hope that I won't get lost.

On the 4th of December 2003, Year 6 went to their High School
Orientation Day. Most of the girls went to the Mackellar Orientation.
When I arrived at Mackellar Girls High School, everyone one settled in
the hall and they had an Assembly to welcome all the Year 6 girls. We
met the Visual Arts teacher, the Principal Mrs. Richards, Deputy
Principal Mrs. White, the two Year 7 advisers and some other teachers
and staff of the
P & C.
During the Assembly we watched a short Powerpoint Pressentation on the
Year 10 Peer Support Camp. We met some of the Peer Support leaders.
After the presentation the Peer Support leaders took us on a tour of
the school and we had some orange juice and biscuits for morning tea.
Each girl in the group got a map and an example of a timetable which we
studied. The timetables were very different to the ones we have in
Primary school. We then went on the tour. We got to see most of the
Blocks in the school. There was A, B, C
(which is the canteen), D and E blocks.
While we were having the tour, our parents had a chance to buy our Year
7 book pack, uniforms, and pay for the school fees. In the book pack we
got a lot of books, a set square, protractor, compass, a ruler, display
folders and a slip folder. That all cost $55. Next year they will give
us our Visual Arts pack.
After the Tour finished everyone went home or to their Primary School.
I had a great day!
On the 4th of December Year 6 from
all around had a High School
Orientation Day. I'm going to Mackellar Girls High so then I go to
Makellar for orientaton day. First we got to buy our Year 7 packs and
our uniforms for next year.
After about 10 minutes we had to all get together in the hall and there
were 2 year 7 girls who shared us their feelings and their thoughts
about their first day at high school. But before the girls talked the
captain of Makellar gave a short speech to us about her time in
Makellar.
We met the Visual Arts teacher and the Principal Mrs Richards, Deputy
Principal Mrs White and the two Year 7 advisers. After we watched a
short video on Makellar and then we split up into six groups and went
to all our Peer Support leaders. My leader was Salome, she was cool.
When we all got together we introduced ourselves to each other and then
we went for a tour.
We went to A block first and then the toilets, B block, C block, D
block and then E Block we even got to met teachers and the staff but
all I remember is Mr Fisher.
After all that walk the Year 7 girls prepared us lunch and that was
good. I had a great time and I'm sure that everyone did too!
I met a lot of people and most of the staff. *IT WAS A GOOD DAY*
