Year 7-10 Assessments
The junior students have been completing assessments in many of their subjects this week and will continue to do so over the coming week. This will culminate in the academic reports being distributed to parents via Compass at the end of Term. Please encourage your children to be working hard on these assessments and taking pride in their learning. We understand that some families have struggled with the recent flooding events. If your child needs extra support with their assessments please contact their class teachers and/or Mrs Amy Tovey, Leader of Curriculum and we will support them.
Atomi Year 11 and 12
Well done to the Year 11 and 12 students who are using Atomi to support their study. This week the awards for the highest usage go to Anna Burbridge and Lucas Morrison. Congratulations and please come to the office to collect your canteen vouchers!
The Atomi platform is a resource the College has invested in because we know it supports the study habit for our students. Please encourage your children to keep using this valuable resource.
Year 11 and 12 Assessment Schedules
This is a reminder about the upcoming assessment schedule. We ask parents to look at these schedules with their children and make sure this is a priority over the coming weeks. Please encourage your children to contact their class teachers for support.
Subject Selection - Year 10
This is a second reminder that Subject Selection evening will take place on 25 June this Term. Please save the date! This is a compulsory evening for all parents of children who wish to continue their schooling with us into their HSC years. If you cannot make this date for any reason, please email me.
Student Equipment
Many teachers have expressed concern over some students arriving to class without the correct equipment. We would like to ask for your support to ensure students are coming to school equipped for their learning every day. We ask that all students bring a pencil case with the equipment listed below. This ensures they are in a position to be successful in their learning right from the start. Let’s work together to help them succeed!

Tell Them From Me Survey
Thank you to all of the parents who completed the survey this year. We had an increase in parent engagement for which we are grateful. Over the coming weeks we will be feeding back to you regarding our findings and what we plan to do as a result. Watch this space!
Please reach out if you have any questions about the learning for your students.
