What are we learning?

This week in Year 1, students have been learning how to plan and compose imaginative texts (narratives) based on The Hare and the Tortoise. They enjoyed discussing ways to adapt the story and craft their own sentences. It was wonderful to see their creativity shine as they explored new ideas and added twists to the classic tale.

Kind Regards,

NAPLAN 2025 Information

Each year the National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) is sat

by students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9. Students will participate in tests for writing, reading,

conventions of language (spelling, grammar and punctuation) and numeracy.

NAPLAN 2025 will take place from Wednesday 12 March to Monday 24 March.

NAPLAN is just one part of our school’s learning assessment program. The tests assess

literacy and numeracy skills your child is already learning at school, so the best

preparation is their everyday classroom learning. Our school will also undertake

activities to help students become familiar with the types of questions and tools

available in the online tests.

The public demonstration site (https://www.nap.edu.au/online-assessment/public-demonstration-site) is available for you to see the format of the online tests.

Further information about NAPLAN is available on the NESA website

(https://www.nsw.gov.au/education-and-training/nesa/naplan) and the NAP website

(https://www.nap.edu.au/naplan/for-parents-carers). 

If you have any questions about NAPLAN, please contact your child’s teacher.
