Hospital and Roads Update

We are continuing to meet regularly with representatives from the Northern Beaches Hospital Project and Ferrovial York, the contractor that is undertaking the road works on behalf of RMS.  Our school continues to benefit from our partnership with the hospital.  Recently Deborah Latta, Northern Beaches Hospital Project, Project Director, visited our school to do a presentation on the hospital project for all of Year 7.  Our students were highly engaged and asked a number of very perceptive questions about the construction and planning of the hospital.  The presentation was to support a unit of work Year 7 students are undertaking in English.  Students are writing and illustrating picture books on healing that could be used to entertain and reassure children who are hospitalised.  This is part of our English and CAPA cross faculty literacy project.  The books are to be explained, presented and finally donated to the Northern Beaches Hospital for therapeutic use with patients.  All of us thoroughly enjoyed the presentation and we thank Deborah Latta and the Northern Beaches Hospital Project team for their ongoing support of the school.
