The Purton Oratory Competition is Rostrevor’s annual public speaking event for Middle & Senior Years students to showcase their skills. This year, each cohort gathered to support their peers as they presented diverse, relevant and engaging topics. All participants were exemplary in the way they composed themselves and delivered their speeches.
Congratulations to the 2023 winners:

Boys in Years 5 and 6 from schools across Adelaide joined their potential new classmates for a ‘Come & Try Day’ on Wednesday. The boys got to experience the Rostrevor Middle Years life through a range of activities, including science, PE, ManCity, Technology and the Agriculture Farm.
The recently appointed Ambassadors for The Charter for Children and Young People – consisting of Lucas Di Blasio (Year 9), Arjun Malhotra (Year 9), Alex Clark (Year 11 - absent) and Jack Haddad (Year 12) – were invited to partake in the Education Minister's Summit on Violence in Schools held at the Adelaide Zoo on Tuesday.
Joining students from across the state and working closely with the representatives from St Aloysius, the boys shared their views on the important issue of violence in schools and helped refine a set of recommendations to present to the Honourable Blair Boyer MP, Minister for Education, and other MPs.
Cooper Pedler and Cooper Shaw travelled to Carclew House in North Adelaide late last month to take part in a day of activities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Primary Years students. They participated in cultural contemporary dancing, shared stories, and painted their stories onto boomerangs.
Three of our Prefects ventured to Loreto College on Tuesday to speak alongside their Prefects and KickStart for Kids founder, Oli Steele at Loreto’s Senior Years assembly. The Kickstart for Kids Period Poverty Campaign is still running, with sanitary product donations open in the Equity Hub.
We are fortunate to have been lent two Jersey calves as part of the Cows Create Careers program for Stage 1 Agriculture. Thanks to James at Newkree Farm for helping out. The students are learning how to productively raise dairy calves and gaining valuable insights into the dairy industry. Thanks to Kim from Udder Delights who visited last week to speak to the boys about career opportunities in the industry (along with bringing some cheese samples which were enjoyed by all).
I would like to remind families that school photos are being taken next week. Middle and Senior Years photos will be on Wednesday 14 June, and Junior Years and sibling photos will be on Thursday 15 June.
