Congratulations to all the students who received GPA results above 3.5 in the latest reports. Congratulations to all of the students who have attendance rates of 95% and above. Great effort!! Well done to all of the Year 10 students who have completed the Common Assessment Tasks for Term One. The results will be released at the start of next term. We have made it to the end of the term. Please have a great break.

This year the Year 10 team members are: Sheryl Tangi (Team Leader Maths / Science and Numerack), Jessica Qu (Science, Life Skills and PBS Leader), Angela Thomas (Art and Photography), Mark Heiberg (Maths, Numerack and Humanities) and Cassie Keevers (English and Humanities) and Denise Cairnduff (English and Health/ PE).
WORK EXPERIENCE
All Year 10 students will be attending two weeks of work experience Week 2 and Week 3 of Term 2, May 2nd to 13th. The students have arranged a placement or two during their team-time classes this term. Please contact Sheryl Tangi if you have any issues. We will have limited spaces to place students due to Covid-19. Please also read the Careers Information on Teams from Alan Ferris. A number of students have already organised their two weeks of Work Experience. All students need to create a USI number and need to complete the General Safe@Work certificate and the certificate of the related industry a.s.a.p.
NATIONAL DAY OF ACTION AGAINST BULLYING AND VIOLENCE
Congratulations to the student leaders for organising the lunch-time activities that occurred recently for the National Day of Action against bullying and violence. The students wore orange accessories, wrote slogans and ate oranges at lunchtime.
CAMP
This year our Year 10 students will hopefully be going to Tasmania in the second last week of term three. Information should be out to students after School Council approval at the start of next term.
ATTENDANCE
This year we will be trying to increase student attendance rates especially at Year 10. We would really appreciate a phone call to the 24-Hour attendance line if your child is absent from school. This helps our attendance officer track students and improve our % attendance for each student.
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 GPA reports at or above 3.5.
