Year 7 and 9 NAPLAN

Wednesday 11 March - Monday 23 March

NAPLAN (National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy) is coming up soon. This annual test is for students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9. It checks important skills in reading, writing, spelling, grammar, punctuation, and maths.

Most students will complete the tests online, except Year 3 writing, which will be done on paper.

NAPLAN helps schools and education authorities see how students are doing with essential literacy and numeracy skills.

Please encourage your child to do their best during the tests.
