IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR YEAR 10 STUDENTS

Dear Parents and Guardians, 

 We wish to share some important information with you regarding upcoming events for Year 10 students. 

Semester 2 Year 10 Exams 

These will be held in the Jubilee Centre (JC) on Monday 30 November and Tuesday 1 December. Students will receive their exam schedule later this term. 

Attendance at the exams is compulsory. Exams will only be rescheduled if a student provides a medical certificate. 

Year 11 2027 Senior Student Transition Interviews 

These interviews involving parents, students and staff from the St Mary MacKillop College Pathways Team will be held from Monday 23 to Friday 27 November. Interviews for students moving into Year 11 VCE VM / VPC in 2027 will be held on Thursday 5, Friday 6 and Monday 9 November. 

These interviews are considered an important step into Year 11, and aim to provide another opportunity to discuss subjects, career pathways and how we can best work together to support each student in their learning. Further information on interview times and how to make a booking through PAM will be shared over the coming weeks. 

Year 11 2027 Orientation Week 

The Year 11 2027 orientation program will start on Tuesday 1 December and conclude on Friday 4 December. 

The orientation program provides an opportunity for students to familiarise themselves with the subjects they are studying in 2027, to start their learning for next year, and to set up for success in their academic studies before the start of next year. Students will also receive homework they are expected to complete over the holidays. 

Attendance at all orientation week classes is compulsory. The end date for Year 10 students will be Friday 4 December. Students are expected to be at school until this date. We ask for your support in this matter. 

Please let me know if you have any questions. We wish your child success in their exams and orientation classes. 

Yours sincerely, 

Nathan Lane 

Deputy Principal: Teaching and Learning
