All Year 10 students have now commenced exams, and they continue this week (14 June - 20 June). They will undertake an exam for each of their six subjects. 

  • Students are only required at school during their scheduled exams.
  • Students need to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to all of their exams, line up in front of the hall in full school uniform. Any uniform breaches may result in students not being able to sit their exams.
  • B2 will be available as a study space for Year 10 students to use throughout the entire exam period. 

If you are enrolled in a Year 11 class, they will continue to run for during this period, if you do not have an exam at your scheduled class time we encourage you to still attend these classes so as to not fall behind.  Please see attached the exam timetable for the week.
