We are so proud of our Year 7 and 8 MISA Debating Teams. We debated against Broughton Anglican College today and it is with much joy that I announce that Year 8 were victorious against Broughton. The debate topic was 'That daily exercise should be part of the school timetable', and we were the affirmative team. Be sure to congratulate the following students on the exceptional way they created arguments and represented the school.

Staff Development Day (Pupil Free Day)
Monday 24th August 2020
Teachers and School Support Staff will be engaged in a Faith and Wellbeing Staff Development Day on Monday the 24th August. The day will focus on staff managing their own faith and wellbeing in changing and complex times, to be able to support students and others. We appreciate there is some inconvenience in not having children attend school on this day but see this is essential to ensure our staff are equipped to support themselves and the students through this difficult year.
