NAPLAN
The Year 9’s will be involved in NAPLAN testing this week. Students will need a charged laptop, wired headphones and a pen or pencil.
There has been assessment occurring over the last couple of weeks and this will continue over this week. It is normal for young people to feel overwhelmed during this time. Encourage them to develop effective organisation skills by using their diary to plan out their study. Please encourage them to be proactive and communicate with teachers if required.
