NAPLAN 2026

NAPLAN results have been sent home through the mail and should've been received by now. If you haven't received your results or would like to discuss your results, please contact your relevant Head of Year Level. 

Subject Selection

It's been a great start to the term for our current Year 9's as they began the process for 2027 subject selection. 

Parents should be seeing a yellow form that needs to be filled in with subjects for next year. Students should bring this form to Course Confirmation on Monday August 10 where they will get to meet with one of our leadership team to discuss their pathways. 

Congratulations to the students who were invited to complete early access to VCE - this process was by invitation only based on a number of data sets that include GPA, NAPLAN, Attendance and Student Reports as well as teacher recommendations. This ensures we set the students up for success. 

Thank you to the parents who joined us on senior school information evening, and if you have any feedback feel free to get in contact.

Year 8 Camp

Please ensure that all of your medical and dietaries documentation has been submitted for the camp. Mrs Coverdale and Mrs Kennedy have an action-packed camp planned. I can't wait to get up on the Tuesday to run the Monster Course with the students. Ensure you bring shoes and clothes that you are happy to get muddy! 

RUOK Day

Thursday September 10 will be RUOK day at Norwood - It's a wonderful carnival atmosphere with food trucks, petting zoo, face painting and this year I've heard there is a secret activity which is going to be a lot of fun! I'm hoping they haven't ordered the dunk tank again!
