Year 10 Pathways Evening
7pm, Thursday 2 June in The Farrall Centre
This is an important evening for all Year 10 students and their families to hear about the varied pathways The Friends’ School has available at Clemes for the final two years of secondary schooling.
The evening is an opportunity to hear about the Clemes experience, our Tasmanian Certificate of Education (TCE) and Vocational Education & Training (VET) offerings and our IB Diploma Programme, the only one in Tasmania. As a school, we are uniquely placed to support our students to challenge themselves academically whilst being supported fully in a caring and nurturing environment that provides an important bridge between school and adult life.
We look forward to having all Year 10 students and parents in attendance at 7pm in The Farrall Centre.

QuietRoar puts a spotlight on writers whose words make some noise, on unsung (or usually unheard, or just beginning to be heard) voices; a spotlight on issues that need to be examined; on ways of telling stories that are moving from the margins to the mainstream; a spotlight on voices that will no longer remain quiet.
