The Middle School Team
Ready To Learn
A reminder that all students should have their books, stationery, school planner and uniform ready and correct, now that everyone has settled in.
If a student has any issues with equipment or uniform they should contact the Year Level Coordinators to create a plan for supporting their child to be able to fully engage with their learning and meet our school expectations.
We are always keen to work together with families to support our students.
Required laptop program for NAPLAN
NAPLAN testing will take place in Week 7 on student laptops. We ask that families download the Naplan Online test program to their student's laptop at home to avoid any last minute IT issues. Download the program using this link:
