Student progress can be monitored throughout the semester using Compass . Teachers regularly upload assessment results, providing up-to-date information about student learning and achievement via Learning Tasks.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the relevant teachers, as early communication and support can make a significant difference to student success.

Ready, Steady, Cook!
Inspired by the popular TV show of the same name, our Year 10 Food Technology students took part in their own version of Ready, Steady, Cook!
The class was divided into two teams, with four ingredients selected for each team. Working in pairs, students researched a recipe that incorporated all four ingredients and prepared a shopping list for their teacher as part of the assessment task.
The following week, it was time to put their planning into action! Students had just 60 minutes to prepare and present their chosen dish, showcasing their culinary skills, creativity and time management.
The dishes were judged on three criteria: degree of difficulty, taste and presentation.
The challenge was a fantastic opportunity for students to apply their food preparation skills, think creatively and work collaboratively under time pressure.
Here are just a few examples of the delicious dishes produced by our talented Year 10 Food Technology students.
And the winner in 10FOO1 class are:
Degree of difficulty - Sarah & Princess
Taste - Ilaria & Ava
Presentation - Christian
Well done everyone!
