Our Year 8 Camp is now on COMPASS.  If you are intending on going can I please ask families to complete the consent form online so we have a clear idea of student numbers. The Camp is located at Falls Creek and is an amazing opportunity for our students to build new relationships, try new things and build their resilience.

Our students will also begin their preparation for semester 1 exams. This semester will will conduct exams for English and Maths. The following time allocation has been set for each year level:
