Learning and Teaching

Remote Learning has given all students the opportunity to demonstrate the four pillars of our Learning Framework. Over the course of the last five days we have been engaged in remote learning, we have seen students “Taking Ownership” of their learning, through their use of Simon, accessing class notices and just continuing on with their learning. Students are “Making Connections” they have been reaching out to teachers to check in for homeroom, emailing classroom teachers when they need to seek clarification on a task, also while connecting the content from one lesson to the next. Students have demonstrated Thinking Deeply as they challenge themselves to be active learners engaged in remote learning, to remain focused and on task, and to build on their subject knowledge as independent learners. All of these elements show our students have embraced remote learning and are Being Courageous!

Year 11 Exams

Students who do not have a scheduled exam are not required at School. If parents are not able to provide supervision at home, or students are not able to get home, the College will provide a supervised study venue for any students at school without an Exam. Parents are asked to please respond to the PAM notification for Year 11 Exams.

Year 11 VCAL students will continue with their classes as per normal.
