Year 12s prepare for their final weeks

An important time for our Senior students
Many of our Unit 3/4 students spent their holidays busy with revision and preparation for their final exams, either in private study or here at school, with the Connect revision lectures well-attended. This is an important time for our Year 12 students: a milestone in their social, emotional and academic lives. We wish them every success and know that they will continue to make us proud in many and various ways.

School and Community Expectations
The Graduation and pre-exam period can sometimes seem like the end of VCE but this is certainly not the case with an intense study and exam period ahead.
We have been working closely with the schools in our area, Victoria Police and the Transit Police to ensure all members of our school community and neighbourhood are safe during the final weeks of Year 12 and are aware of their personal and community responsibilities in regard to behaving appropriately.
Please note: students and families should be aware that students who choose to behave in a manner that does not represent school and community expectations will be dealt with swiftly and decisively to ensure the safety of our community and reputation of our school is upheld.
