Highlights

Term after term, YSS Media Club's students are the ones behind the scenes at every school event — camera in hand for photos and video, and manning the AV system so assemblies, concerts, and ceremonies run without a hitch. This year, that everyday groundwork became a springboard for something bigger.

The year began with a trip outside the classroom to The Smart Local's production studio, where students watched a professional media team at work and got an early look at how artificial intelligence is starting to change the way content gets made.

For the iCapture Mobile Filmmaking Workshop, students filmed and edited highlight reels of our SYF performances — practising the same critical media literacy skills (deciding what story to tell, and how) that sit at the heart of the 21st Century Competencies.

Each term, students combed through hundreds of photos to hand-pick the standout shots for our Termly Highlights showcase, learning to edit with intention rather than just capture with a camera.

And on the competition front, this was our strongest year yet: 60 students entered OSOS (Our Schools Our Stories), and 64 students took part in Youth Against Scams — proof that more of our students are choosing to tell their own stories, not just watch others tell theirs.

Five different roles, one throughline: students learning to see, choose, and tell their own stories — on stage and behind the lens.
