Debating is very popular at Tintern Grammar. We encourage students to take on the challenge of debating and we are a regional host school for the DAV competition. On Tuesday our Middle School students took part in an informative workshop to develop their debating skills with former debate coach and public speaking trainer Elaine Doyle. Students viewed and discussed samples of persuasive techniques in arguments and rebuttals, then it was their turn to take part in a debate, with all students receiving individual feedback. We look forward to these students signing up to the Tintern Grammar Debate Team in 2025, knowing they will build their already confident speaking skills further. We thank Mrs Derry our Debating Co-ordinator for providing our students with such a valuable debating program.

Morning Fitness sessions that began in Term 3 are still popular with our Year 5 and 6 girls. Held on every second Tuesday before school they promote wellbeing, through movement and activity. These sessions have included children's HIIT routines, running, gymnastics, Just Dance favourites and individual and team skipping. The boys also have Morning Fitness every second Friday. A wellbeing initiative for our Junior School students.

It really does start with care at Tintern Grammar. Today is Prep Orientation Day in our Boys' and Girls' Junior Schools. Our 2025 Preps spent the day with their teachers enjoying many fun activities. It was a great opportunity to make new friends, with students from the Tintern Grammar ELC joining with students starting their journey at Tintern. The Boys met their buddies who supported them today and will guide them in their first year. The Girls will meet their buddies at the start of the school year. Welcome to our 2025 Preps! 😊
