Secondary School News

Hi all and thanks for the support that you are giving all our students as they navigate the challenges of returning to onsite learning.

The Year 12s are in the middle of exams and these have been running very smoothly at our gym and at the Reid Street location.

Chris Millard and the senior school team have been doing a great job of keeping all students informed and able to access revision sessions and support.

Thanks again to parents and family members who have so promptly attended testing sites in order to allow us to keep all our community as safe as possible.

Year 11 exams will begin next Friday 12 November and the last VCE exam will take place on the 17 November. Our VCAL students are still completing course work and will have their final celebration on the afternoon of Friday 12 November.

The Year 11 exams will be conducted in a large space that is well ventilated in much the same way as the year 12 exams have been run.

The Early commencement Program planned for our Year 11s going into year 12 will take place in week 9, starting on Monday 22 November.

The Year 10 students will be starting their Early Commencement Program at the beginning of week 10, Monday 6 December.

The Orientation Day for Year 6 students who will be in year 7 next year will be held on Tuesday 7 December.

After this day there will be some special activities for our Year 7, 8 and 9 students. These have been set up to help them all enjoy being back together and able to socialise.

We have been so delighted to have most students back on site it feels like a huge relief for everyone. Students have been very happy to be catching up with their peers and once again getting used to this environment.

We are continuing to focus on student wellbeing as well as re-engaging with learning.

Please get in touch if you have any particular concerns about your child.

Keep safe and well
