Year 12 Exams Begin

The Year 12 Exams held at Horsham College began on Tuesday with English.

Over the next three weeks students will be sitting end of year exams in the Maroske Hall and on behalf of all of the College community we wish the students the very best.  Thank you also to the teachers who have supported the students not only this year but throughout their time at Horsham College.

Year 11 Exams

Year 11 Exams will be from Wednesday 8th – 10th of November for Year 11 VCE students. Practicing the skill of sitting exams, is important for students intending to complete VCE. All Year 11 VCE students are required to attend their scheduled exams. The timetable will be distributed next week. Where students have clashes, they are to work with the Year 11 Team to reschedule their exams. 

Headstart Program – 2024

A reminder that the Year 11 into 12 Headstart program will begin on November 13th.  This is a great way to start 2024 and the final year for students at the College.  Where possible the Year 12 teacher for next year will take the class and when this is not possible the current Year 12 teacher will take the class for the two weeks.

VCE English students have this week been given notices regarding their Year 12 texts 2024 Year 12 cohort.
