At the time of writing, our Year 11 students are about to undertake their final exams. After this period, students will return for Year 12 Orientation and begin by undertaking exam feedback sessions with their Unit 2 teachers. These exam feedback sessions are incredibly important for students to get a sense of how they perform in exam conditions and to also to reflect upon areas of strength as well as improvement for 2021. Students will then start their orientation program for year 12 in 2021 where all students will have 2 classes of their Year 12 subjects where they will get given a range of homework to prepare them for Year 12.
It is essential that all students attend this orientation, to ensure that they transition successfully to their final year of schooling. Attendance is compulsory. A great deal of preparation now can have a direct impact on student readiness for the demands of VCE and VCAL in Year 12.
There will be an opportunity for students to attend school on Friday 4th December to make changes to their subjects. I am very proud of all of the work that has been completed by the Year 11 Student Management Team, the Year 12 Sub School Leader and our School Operations Leader to ensure that students have received as many of their choices as possible.
Our current Year 12 students have been working very hard to do their best for the exams and it’s been great to see that effort. VCAA exams will officially end on Friday 1st of December.
I’d like to take this opportunity to remind families and students that mobile phones are expected to be stored safely in their locker from the beginning of the school day until the end of the school day. It’s great to see students communicating at lunchtimes in conversation rather than staring at mobile phones.
School loaned device return dates. The school lent a number of devices to families to support them during the remote learning period. All of these devices must be returned to the college according to the dates below. You can return the device prior to these dates via the IT department.
Year 12 – On the day of their last exam
Year 11 – On 30th November (Exam Feedback Day)
Years 7-10 – On Friday 18th December
