Certificate II in Rural Operations

The Year 10 rural operations students have successfully completed the course requirements for their Certificate II in Rural Operations and were awarded their certificate by the Headmaster this week.

Working with their teacher, Ian Jones, in theory lessons at school, the students also attended UQ Skills in Gatton four times each term for practical lessons and assessments.

Some of the units completed were workplace health and safety, weed identification, fencing, small machines, tractor operation and working with small and large animals.

The students can now progress to the Certificate III programme if they meet the eligibility criteria. Congratulations to everyone involved! 

Aquila news

The team of Daniel He, Lucas Shan and Yunfan Shu were the state winners of the Queensland Association of Maths Teachers Quiz. The final saw the boys competing online against schools from across the state. They collaborated excellently and, after a slow start in the estimation round, built a comfortable lead after the speed and problem-solving rounds. The final two rounds of individual questions and maths general knowledge saw them edge out the defending champions, Brisbane Girls Grammar School.
