Sharing some wonderful outcomes from our Year 7 G&T Visual Arts class! 🥛

Students took inspiration from traditional Chinese ceramic decoration and applied it to a modern form, the humble milk carton, blending traditional and contemporary making. Each piece was slab-built and decorated using underglaze and glaze.

Despite a few surprises in the kiln, the final results are something to be proud of. This was a challenging task for Year 7 students, and they did exceptionally well throughout the process.

Over the school holidays, some of our talented visual art students had their work on display at the South Perth Emerging Artist Awards, with 128 finalists selected from more than 300 entries.

Congratulations to our finalists Kate Cavaney, Imogen Birkinshaw Campbell, Giomarie Dioneda, Miya Do, and Bell Goodridge. It was wonderful to see students and their families at the exhibition, and a fantastic experience for our young artists to have their work professionally displayed.

Congratulations to Bell, whose work ‘B’ won the Secondary School Prize and prize money. What an outstanding way to finish her secondary education!

Pictured are our students with their artworks. We are very proud of you all.

What a way to finish! 💙

Our Year 12s have wrapped up their final three days at Balcatta SHS, and they made every moment count. It kicked off with Dress Ups on Wednesday, followed by the Pool Event on Thursday, and today we celebrated with the Year 12 Breakfast, Final Assembly and Cake Cutting before officially farewelling our Class of 2026.

Here are some snapshots from an unforgettable few days. Congratulations, Year 12s. We are so proud of you and wish you all the best for your future

Today our school community came together to celebrate Blessed Rainy Day (Thruebab), a special occasion for our Bhutanese students and families that marks the end of the monsoon season and the blessings it brings. 🌧️

It was lovely to see students and staff come along to receive a blessing and take part in the celebration together. Days like this are what make our school community so special.

Thank you to everyone who helped bring the celebration together.

A huge thank you to everyone who donated to our Foodbank Donation Drive. 🥫

Thanks to the generosity of our school community, we were able to hand over a fantastic amount of non-perishable goods to Foodbank WA, where they will go directly to Western Australians doing it tough.

Every can, packet and jar makes a difference, and we are proud of our students and families for getting behind it.
