Subject Selection - Year 10
Thank you to all students and families who have participated in the subject selection process with the College leadership team. We acknowledge the time you have invested coming to the subject selection evening and meeting at the school. This investment will go a long way towards ensuring that your children are on the right pathway and in the right courses.
We have had some wonderful conversations this week about the pathways for Year 10 students. We acknowledge that there is a big shift from Year 10 to senior schooling and we want to support the students to make good choices. A very sincere thanks to you all!
Parent/Teacher Evening - Years 7-12 - ADVANCE NOTICE
We will be conducting Parent Teacher evenings in Week 8 and 9 this Term. This will be an opportunity to discuss your child's progress with their teachers. Please keep the evening of either 11 September or 16 September free to book appointments.
Year 12 - Trial HSC exams
The trial exam period is 18 - 29 August. This is an incredibly important assessment block for the students as it prepares them for the reality of the HSC exams. Please ensure that Year 12 students are working with their teachers in the lead up to this period and seeking help from the pastoral care team if they need it. Atomi is an excellent resource for these students at this time.
Year 11 Preliminary Exam Period
The Year 11 classes are working towards their preliminary exams in Week 9. This culminates the course for these students before they move into their HSC year which starts in Term 4. Encourage Year 11 students to work with their teachers for revision tasks during this period. Atomi is an excellent resource for these students at this time.
Attendance at school during the above two exam periods is mandatory. We do understand that sometimes sickness is inevitable. Students must follow the guidelines on the notification if they are unwell on the day of or the day before a task. This is incredibly important as it follows the necessary guidance from NESA in preparation for their HSC.
Please reach out if you have any questions about the learning for your students.
