Building Futures Showcase 

St Mary's College is pleased to once again be holding the Building Futures Showcase on Thursday 19 May. 

This expo-style event will be held in the Nagle Centre for students in Years 7 to 12 to support them in seeing their pathway through school life and beyond. 

It will provide information for students choosing courses for the following year, and all Senior School teachers will be available to talk through options and directions. 

We will also have some specialty booths from organisations such as UTAS, Tasmania Police, Australian Defence Force Academy, Work and Training, Build Up Tassie, as well as SMC alumni from various industries to provide a broader perspective for students. 

We have an extended time for attendance, outside school hours, from 5.00pm-8.00pm to ensure you can be part of the discussion with your daughter and her teachers to support her decisions. 

Please indicate how many from your family are attending by booking a ticket for each person onlinehere. We look forward to seeing you there!

Reminder | NAPLAN 2022

All students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 will be participating in NAPLAN (National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy) from Tuesday 10 May to Thursday 19 May 2022. 

This annual testing program allows parents/carers and educators to see how students are progressing in literacy and numeracy over time – individually, as part of their school community, and against national standards.
