The end of Year 10 for our students is coming around very quickly. The students begin 2 weeks of Head-start at the University Campus on November 25th. Most students are signed up to their Year 11 courses and timetables will be out in the next few weeks. The students in Year 10 this year have been a pleasure to work with and the Year 10 team of teachers would like to wish them all ‘good luck in their future pathways’.

Formal

The Year 10 formal will be held at the Italian/Australian Club on Tuesday 19th. We hope to see all Year 10 at the celebration. The tickets for students will be $45 per person and the theme is ‘Midnight Mafia’. The colours the students chose for the set up are black, gold and white. There will be a three-course meal and it is a chance to celebrate their achievements.

Attendance

This year we are trying to increase student attendance rates especially at Year 10. We would really appreciate a phone call to the 24-Hour attendance line if your child is absent from school. This helps our attendance officer track students and improve our % attendance for each student.  

PBS

Students can receive a KPA SMS message to parents from teachers each lesson for positive behaviour. Students are also receiving postcards for displaying consistent behaviours for the four school pillars of Excellence, Relationships, Work Ethic and Engagement. This year we will be rewarding students with great attendance to school and for GPA reports at or above 3.5 as well as growth reports. Ten students achieved 4.0 GPA results recently. Well done!
