Peer Support is off to a great start this year with students getting to know each other and developing friendships.

The Year 12 VCE students kicked the year off with gusto on the annual Soaring Start Camp. Staying in the residences of Melbourne University, students sampled life on campus, and learned some valuable study skills to prepare them for the year to come.

What a class of stars! Everyone applied themselves throughout the camp, whether it was helping with equipment, supporting others over difficult parts of the hikes, supporting friends when cooking or working around camp.

Students in Year 7 learned about 'Onigiri', one of the most popular snacks in Japan.

As part of Community Outreach Week, a group of students visited the residents of Lilydale Aged Care.

A cold start to summer for our trip to Funfields as a part of our alternative week in Year 9. The chill factor did not stop us from making the most of the day, going on water slides, wave pool, go-karts, pirate ship and voodoo 360 roller-coaster.

We had a very successful day at the Bunnings BBQ. The sun was shining and many people were hungry. After heading out three times to purchase extra supplies, we raised over $800!

Friday 6th December was an important day for the 2020 Students Interact Representative Council. Students spent the day planning their events for 2020 which are looking to be really exciting.

Lilydale Heights College is always happy to share in students’ extra curricula activities.

It was a fitting end to a busy year for all of our Award students. Students from Year 7 through to Year 10 worked alongside each other; it was great to see.

Congratulations on the group's achievements over the last few days. It is always a tough job to carry all of your gear on your back and camp for three nights, but to carry it non-stop up and down hilly terrains and be self-sufficient with cooking, cleaning and navigating is quite an achievement.

Well done to Laura, Hayley and Amelia who attended the Interact District Assembly Day on Monday 2nd December.
