Hello students, parents and caregivers,
The 2024 academic year is well underway! Our students and staff have begun very well and we are all striving to produce our personal bests. Supporting great teaching and learning are our Assessment handbooks in Years 12, 11, 10 and 9 in 2024. The assessment handbooks are designed on the major premise of containing policies and procedures that are fair and equitable to all involved.
Year 12 students received their Assessment Handbooks during Term 4, 2023. Year 11 students received their Assessment handbooks on Monday 5 February 2024 and our Year 10 students received their Assessment Handbooks on Friday 9 February 2024. Our Year 9 students will receive their Assessment Handbooks during this week.
