SUBJECT SELECTION 

Earlier this week, we held the SJRC Careers Expo for our students entering Year 9, Year 10, Year 11, and Year 12 in 2025. The evening was a great success and a perfect opportunity for all students and families to connect with staff and external TAFE and Tertiary providers to support them in subject selection.

NAPLAN

Year 7 and Year 9 NAPLAN results have been mailed out to families this week. 

A reminder NAPLAN results are designed to support learning growth.

• Students and parents/carers are encouraged to discuss progress with teachers.
• Teachers use results to help identify students who need more significant challenges or extra support.
• Schools use results to identify strengths and areas for improvement in teaching programs and to set literacy and numeracy goals.
• School systems use results to review the effectiveness of programs and support offered to schools.
