Year 11 News

We are racing through this short term and towards the end of semester. The finish line is just around the corner, so let's make every effort to stay on top of our assessments and work requirements.

Staying on track gives you the best chance to achieve the grades you desire and can significantly reduce stress levels. Avoiding last-minute cramming sessions and rushed submissions allows you to approach your work with a clear mind and greater confidence.

Don't forget the support you have! In addition to your own efforts, we want to remind you that help is available when you need it. Reach out to your teachers or coordinators if you need extra support. If you're struggling with Math or English, we've got you covered! Every Wednesday night, there are dedicated sessions where you can receive extra assistance in these subjects. Take advantage of this opportunity to clarify your doubts, strengthen your understanding, and improve your performance.

Keep pushing forward, Year 11! With your hard work, dedication, and the support available to you, there's no doubt you'll finish this semester strong. Keep celebrating the small wins and recognise and reward yourself for completing tasks and meeting deadlines.

Uniform

We would like to remind everyone that wearing school uniform is always mandatory during school hours. We have noticed an increase in the number of students disregarding this rule.

Wearing school uniform is not only a requirement, but it is also a way to represent our school and community with pride. It promotes a sense of belonging and unity among students.

We understand that personal expression is important, but school uniform provides an equaliser and creates a professional atmosphere that is conducive to learning. It also eliminates the stress of choosing what to wear every morning, which can be a distraction from academic pursuits.

If you require support for any reason in obtaining uniform, please contact the Year 11 team.

Absences

If your child is absent we request that you contact the school either via the Absence Hotline on 5382 1191, a signed note or SEQTA message. Form group teachers will be in touch if your child has an unexplained absence to ensure your child’s attendance is up to date.
