Love Mercy
In Week 7 of Term 2, Port will be supporting ‘Love Mercy’, a charity based in Uganda, committed to implementing effective & sustainable, rights based development projects which rely upon the potential of local communities in a way that promotes gender equality, environmental sustainability and participatory program development.
We will be hosting presentations and sporting competitions throughout the week, as well as hosting a fundraising mufti day on Friday 8 June to raise funds for ‘Love Mercy’. Please support us as we support disadvantaged children in Uganda.

Back in the Times: The Ultimate Medieval Experience
Students in Year 8 had the opportunity to participate in a “hands-on” medieval experience on Tuesday March 27th 2012.
The presenter enthralled students with the colourful display of clothing, armour & archery, as well as aspects of torture, punishment and the law from Medieval times.
Students were encouraged to actively participate in the show. They were able to touch, hold and wear the equipment. There was an impressive array of artefacts from the past which allowed students to really engross themselves in this interesting era.
Year 8 came away from the experience having been enriched by participating in this valuable learning experience.
Thank you to the HSIE Faculty for hosting this annual event at Port.
