Year 10 News

Welcome Back to Term 4!

We have had a fantastic start to Term 4, with our Year 10 students returning to school with a positive attitude and a willingness to engage in their learning. It has been wonderful to see students reconnecting with their peers and teachers, settling back into classroom routines and demonstrating enthusiasm for the term ahead.

As we enter the final term of the school year, we encourage all students to maintain their focus, make positive choices and continue working towards their personal and academic goals.

With Sheryl away on some well-deserved long service leave for the first six weeks of Term 4, I, Patrick McGrath, will be stepping into the role of Acting Year 10 Team Leader.

I am looking forward to working closely with Year 10 students, families and staff to ensure a positive and supportive learning environment. Our focus will be on encouraging student engagement, promoting positive relationships and supporting students to finish the school year successfully. I am looking forward to getting to know the Year 10 cohort further and providing guidance and support throughout his time in the role.

PAT Testing

Our Year 10 students have been participating in Progressive Achievement Tests (PAT), which provide valuable insights into their current literacy and numeracy skills.

These assessments help teachers identify individual strengths, monitor learning growth and recognise areas where additional support may be beneficial. We commend students for their participation and encourage them to approach these assessments with their best effort and a positive mindset.

Looking Ahead

With the final term underway, we encourage all Year 10 students to continue demonstrating our school values, attending classes on time consistently and wearing our school uniform coming into the warmer weather. 

We are also excited to announce that the Year 10 Formal will be held on Monday, 7th December.

This is a fantastic opportunity for students to come together, celebrate their achievements with their peers as they approach the end of the school year and transition to our senior campus.

Tickets are on sale now through Compass! We encourage families to secure their tickets and look forward to celebrating this special occasion with our Year 10 students.

We look forward to a productive and rewarding final term and thank our families for their ongoing support of the Year 10 cohort.
