In composite classes, students will compete against students in their own level only.
In planning week, September 7-9, teachers will adjudicate the finalists.Finalists have to be present at school to compete in the finals.
Prizes comprising of CL&S awards, French certificates, books and stationery will be awarded early in Term 4.
Looking forward to it,
