Junior School Report

Term 3 continues to be filled with exciting extra-curricular events for the Junior Sub- School. Students are in the midst of assessment tasks and tests and learning is well underway.

YEAR 8 PARENT INFORMATION EVENING

On Tuesday 27 August, the Junior Sub School held the Year 8 Parent information Evening. The evening’s main purpose was to explain to parents and students about subject course selection process for Year 9 2020. The information was informative and explained how students choose subjects. Our Mac students presented two performances from the school play and Helen Huynh performed also for the audience.

PROGRESS REPORTS

Teachers have just completed writing the progress reports. Any student who is failing more than 2 subjects will be contacted by the Coordinator. Students whose progress is unsatisfactory in any subject will be interviewed by the Coordinator with a view to improving results.

LATENESS

It is important that our students arrive to school on time in the morning. Just a reminder that students who are continuously late to school in the morning will be required to attend afterschool detentions.  After 4 lates, students will be required to attend a two hour Friday Night detention. It has been pleasing to see the number of late Junior school students has dropped significantly. Let’s try to have no more Friday night detentions in the Junior School.

Year 8 Camps

Our fantastic school camps start again at the end of this term for Year 8 and students are looking forward to attending again this year.  The Integrated Studies excursion to the Organ Pipes National Park has also been attended by the students who experienced a very cold day on their visits.

MAC Performers

We are very proud of the Junior School students who participated in the MAC Performance of “The Addams Family”. We certainly have some talented and enthusiastic students. These students spent many hours rehearsing and assisting in backstage and late nights performing. Congratulations on your fabulous efforts.
