YEAR 11 KEY INFORMATION: WEEK 4
The Marathon Begins!
Congratulations to our Year 11 students on completing their Block Exams!
Throughout the year, we have spoken with students about their journey as ‘A Marathon in the Making’, with Year 11 serving as the preparation and training for the challenges ahead.
As students commence their Year 12 studies, the marathon officially begins! The habits, resilience and consistency they have developed throughout Year 11 will be important as they take this next step.
Students are encouraged to stay focused, support one another and remember that every step counts. We look forward to seeing them embrace this next chapter of their senior schooling.
Year 11 Pastoral Day – Green Island
A reminder to Year 11 students and families that the Year 11 Pastoral Day at Green Island will take place on Monday, 26 October. This is a compulsory school day and provides an opportunity for students to celebrate the completion of Year 11 together before commencing their final year of schooling.
Students are required to:
- Arrive at Marlin Marina by 7:45 am.
- Be collected from Marlin Marina at approximately 5:30 pm.
- Bring their own morning tea and lunch.
- Wear their sports uniform, including sports shoes.
Bring swimmers, a towel, water bottle, hat, sunscreen, thongs and a sun shirt/Lycra suit for snorkelling.
Students wishing to participate in snorkelling must have a completed and signed snorkelling consent form. A copy has been emailed to students for anyone who still needs to print, complete and return the form.
Please note that students will not be permitted to use their mobile phones throughout the day. They are welcome to bring a camera, book or small game to enjoy during travel and downtime.
We look forward to a great day celebrating the achievements of our Year 11 cohort. Thank you for your support in ensuring students arrive prepared and on time for the day's activities.
