Leader of Year 11 Wellbeing 

As we conclude Term 3, we extend our congratulations to all Year 11 students on completing their Preliminary year. When students return next term, they will do so as Year 12. The senior leaders of our College community. This transition marks an important moment of growth, responsibility, and readiness. Our school motto, Je Suis Prêt - “I am ready”- captures the spirit of this cohort. They are ready to step confidently into leadership, ready to uphold the values of St Aloysius College, and ready to embrace the challenges and opportunities of their HSC year. We look forward to supporting them as they continue to develop their strengths, character, and commitment to excellence. 

Completion of Year 11 Preliminary Exams

Congratulations to all Year 11 students on completing the Preliminary Exam Block. The majority of students demonstrated strong organisation, focus, and maturity throughout the assessment period. A small number of students will need to revisit the exam protocols and expectations to ensure they are fully prepared for their first HSC Assessment Block next year.

This is an important learning milestone, and students are encouraged to reflect on their preparation strategies, identify areas for improvement, and continue building positive study habits as they move toward Year 12.
