Report September 1
Another fabulous thing ticked off on my bucket list for Australia.
This Monday I had the Opportunity to join Andy, whose wife Raelene is a Rotarian on a flight over the south in a beautiful Sports Plane. We took of from Jandakot and made a big loop all the way to Point Leeuwin along the coast passing all the cities I’ve visited in the last year. It is such a great feeling to be able to see all this. On the way back we took the way over the hills to see the big industrial construction before coming back into Jandakot.
Thank you, Andy and Raelene from Rotary Mill Point to take me on a flight.
After I spoke at our House assembly about my Year, what I learned on my Exchange and what Scotch and especially my House, Shearer, taught me throughout the year.
Afterwards, Rotarian and Mentor Graeme Fardon and Logan Ducan-Smith joined me for a meeting with the Headmaster Dr. Alec O’Connel to show our gratitude towards the school and everyone who made my year the year it was here at scotch.
On Thursday I had my last Assembly, it became a routine for me and now it as it is = the last time it felt really strange.
In the evening, we had the Presentation of our Film we produced all around the school year to the Parents and others. It was a great night with a lot of great pieces.
The one thing which amazed me the most, was to find a Rotary Exchange Student Blazer with all the Badges and Pins in their archives
Before the PSA Interschool Athletics Carnival, I marched my last ever official and marked Marching at school, where Shearer House became second. Unfortunately I’ve never experienced how it feels to win marching but being the all-time second place is also alright. Here a video of our marching: Marching.MOV
Scotch won the Carnival seven consecutive Years, it is the highlight of the interschool sports season, and it just was the greatest event to be a part of. It really had a scene of unity for the whole school.
As year 11s we were allowed to cheer on in period 1 and 2 live on the oval.

And of course we continued watching in class. In the end Scotch won the Trophy the 7 time in a row and broke the record of their 6 consecutive wins 60 years ago.
