Year 10 News

As we come to the end of Term 1, our Year 10 students are preparing for an exciting period of learning beyond the classroom with two weeks of Work Experience. This valuable opportunity allows students to explore potential career pathways, develop workplace skills, and gain real-world experience.

Work Experience

All Year 10 students will be participating in two weeks of Work Experience during Week 2 and Week 3 of Term 2 (Monday 27 April – Friday 8 May).

Students will organise their placement(s) during Team-Time classes throughout this term. Many students have already secured their placements, which is fantastic to see.

If you encounter any issues arranging a placement, please contact Sheryl Tangi or Alan Ferris for support. Students are also encouraged to read the Careers Information available on Teams, as shared by Alan Ferris.

As part of the preparation, all students are required to:

• Create a USI (Unique Student Identifier)
• Complete the General Safe@Work Certificate
• Complete the Safe@Work Certificate relevant to their chosen industry

These requirements should be completed as soon as possible.

Camp

This year our Year 10 students have the opportunity to go to Tasmania in the second last week of term three. Information is out for students now.

Attendance

This year, we will be trying to increase student attendance rates, especially at Year 10. Please call the 24-Hour Attendance Line if your child is absent from school. This helps our attendance officer track students and improve each student's attendance rate.  

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 LBU reports at or above 3.5 as well as growth reports.

Reminders

• Students will require a device (please contact us if you need some support).
• Students need to be at school by 8:35 am.
• Students need to be in complete school uniform (please contact us if you need some support). 
• NO MOBILES during school hours
