Rabin

Ari Merten – Year 12

Ezra Hersch – Year 12

Last week, the mighty Rabin House gathered for our first House assembly in many months! It was very exciting to see everyone back in the theatre together having some fun.

We began by bringing a few random Rabinites down onto the stage to ask them some engaging questions, such as: “What was your favourite part of lockdown?”, “McDonalds or KFC?” and “If peanut butter wasn’t called peanut butter, what would you call it and why?”. We then separated into two groups with Years 7 and 8 together and Years 9 and 10 together to play some fun games. We are looking forward to our next meeting together (our last one for the year) where we will continue the fun and House spirit! 

A massive congratulations to Year 12 on the completion of their HSC! It was a tough year, but you’ve made it, and Rabin couldn’t be more proud. The dedication and hard work you all demonstrated is an inspiration to us as students and we can’t wait to see the great things you will achieve. Once again….you will always have a home at Emanuel school. 

On Wednesday of this week, all Tutor Groups in the School had a discussion about White Ribbon Day and what the global movement is about. Students watched a video and discussed what assault is and the forms it can take. It was an important discussion and we hope everyone gained something from the morning.

Congratulations

  • Congratulations to all the Rabin teams who have played in the Lexi Bader Futsal tournament over the past few weeks. You have all been fantastic and put in a lot of effort – thank you for your dedication to Rabin!
  • Congratulations to the Year 7 debating team who did a great job on Monday, and a big thank you to all the Rabinites who came to support!
  • Congratulations to Year 9 for completing their first yearly exam block. We hope that it all went well and you get all the top marks and make Rabin proud!

We are incredibly proud of every single Rabin student this term, from the year 7s who are completing their first year of High School, to the Year 8s – destroying the other houses at Futsal, the Year 9s on their first exam block, the Year 10s for making the most of their situation, despite not being able to go to Israel, the Year 11s for starting their final year of school and the outgoing Year 12s for completing their school year.

As your House Captains we couldn’t ask for a better House and we’re so excited to launch into the new year and get back to the amazing House spirit and activities you all know and love.
