Rise to the challenge with Bush Ranger Cadets
The mission of the Bush Ranger Cadet program is to support young Western Australians to take an active and lead role in the conservation of the natural environment and to understand the mechanisms for its management.
Developing creativity and critical thinking through STEM
Lower school students have one lesson a week in the STEM room where they develop their capabilities in critical and creative thinking as they learn to: generate and evaluate knowledge, clarify concepts and ideas, seek possibilities, consider alternatives, and solve problems.

What a Fantastic opportunity for our students!
Two teams of Year 8s competed in the First Lego League in Mount Barker today. The students have been working in their STEM classes to design, build and code a robot to solve challenges and create and present an Innovation Challenge relating to exploring the oceans. Both teams showed our school values and did a great job. Team 2 (Katie-Ann and Jason) were third in the robot games and received the Breakout Award for their perseverance and achievement. Well done to all involved.

Students are encouraged to wear their house colours and bring water, snacks, lunch, a hat and sunscreen. All events are open to all students; there are no limits on participation numbers and there will be a mixture of track, field and novelty events.

Spectators and cheer squads are welcome. The day will start at 8:50am on the lower oval.
This year KSHS students have showcased their creative skills really well at the Katanning Agricultural Show, We displayed 195 articles from the Home Economics Department in different categories e.g. different levels of sewing, craft, crochet, cross stitch embroidery and machine embroidery. The result was spectacular. We won 23 total prizes in different categories, 11 first and 12 second prizes. What a wonderful achievement! Personally, for me it was an overwhelming result also as I won 12 first prize, 11 second prizes, from Cookery, Needlework, Knitting & Crochet and Arts & Crafts sections. Congratulations to all KA Show winners. Home Economics team - we are simply the greatest! We look forward to displaying more entries next year.
