Year 12 Trial HSC Examinations

The Year 12 Trial HSC Examinations will take place from Monday 5 August to Monday 19 August. A copy of the trial examination timetable is below. I encourage students to revise coursework, and complete past HSC papers and other study materials provided by their class teachers to adequately prepare for their examinations.

Wishing Year 12 the best of luck with their preparations.

PAT Reading and Maths Reports

Last week the PAT Reading and Maths reports were posted in Compass for parents and students. The reports have been organised by Strand to provide detailed insights into specific areas of learning. I encourage parents and students to review these reports together, focusing on the following aspects:

· Areas of strength

· Areas for further development

· Challenges faced

· Areas where students feel they need to develop and build agency.

Reviewing these reports together can help identify strengths and areas for improvement, fostering a collaborative approach to learning and development.

Students will sit the PAT Spelling assessment in Term 3 and will take the PAT Reading and Maths assessments again in Term 4.
