Yr 9 RAID Program

A Busy Start to Term 3
We have had a busy start to Term 3 with Year 9 students. Our first RAID session for the term was held at school, focusing on setting goals for the future. Students reflected on last semester’s reports and set new goals for this semester. They also participated in a STEM careers presentation and a workshop from Live History.
The Year 9s have been undertaking their Morrisby Careers Profiling Interviews. It has been wonderful to see how excited they are about the prospective careers identified based on their interests and strengths.
Looking ahead, Year 9 students will be exploring their subject options for next year, starting with the Senior Subject Expo on Thursday, 31st July and followed by course advising interviews on Wednesday, 6th August. Students will need to complete their subject selections by Sunday, 17th August. Further information about this process will be provided to both students and families.
We also have a busy term ahead, including our RAID Camp and other scheduled RAID activities. Parents are kindly reminded to ensure that Semester 2 RAID and Camp payments are completed as soon as possible.
