From the Dean of Studies

Wow! Another year of NAPLAN testing has been completed. Whether it was your last time with NAPLAN or your child’s first time completing these tests, everyone embraced this journey with the HEROIC effort we see in every lesson, every day. This commitment to learning is engrained in our School's culture and is evident in the dedication and perseverance our students display daily.

NAPLAN, while a significant assessment, is just one episode of learning in your child's educational journey. It provides us with valuable insights into their progress and areas for growth. We appreciate that it offers a snapshot of your child's learning, but it does not define them entirely. We understand the importance of recognising your child's strengths and areas for improvement beyond standardised testing.

The diagnostics provided by NAPLAN continue to be instrumental in helping us understand your child as a learner. They allow us to tailor our teaching approaches to better meet the individual needs of each student, fostering a supportive and enriching learning environment.

As we move forward from NAPLAN testing, we encourage you to celebrate your child's achievements and reflect on their growth. Remember that their success is not solely measured by test scores but by their personal development, resilience, and enthusiasm for learning.

Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education and for your unwavering support throughout this testing period. Together, we will continue to nurture and empower our students to reach their full potential.
