Early Commencement Program (ECP)

The ECP ran for students in Years 7 to 11 (2023 Years 8 to 12) during the past two weeks. Students in Year 8 were able to spend time on the senior campus and had an opportunity to settle in and meet their new teachers. VCE students were given homework to do, and this must be completed before they start school next year. Students have access to this information via Compass and through Google classrooms or Teams which have been set up by their classroom teachers.

Thank you to all the staff who organised and taught in the program and to the students who attended classes. It makes for a very positive start to the new academic year.

 

Program at the start of 2023

Information has been given to students and communicated via Compass. The Year 12s will attend a camp (information on which camp will be confirmed) and the Year 11 students have a special program. Please check Compass about the arrangements.

 

2023 Year 11 Central Australia Trip

In early 2023 information will be provided to students and families about the proposed Central Australia Trip. It will take in the last few days on term three and into the September holidays.

 

Reports – Years 7 to 11

All reports are now available via Compass. Please log in to the parent portal to access them. The reports provide an opportunity for further discussions at home around progress and achievement on Learning Behaviours, Victorian Curriculum Levels (for Years 7 to 10), Common Assessment Tasks and/or School Assessed Coursework and for Year 9 to 11 students their exam results.

Each assessment item also includes advice on areas for improvement and can be built upon in 2023. I would like to acknowledge the hard work of teachers in assessing, marking exams and writing reports at a very busy time of the year.

A special thank you to Andrew Wallace one of our Information Technology team who has overseen and managed the technical side of the process.

 

Year 12 results

Students who completed a Units 3 & 4 subject in 2022 received their results on Monday. Year 12 students who have applied for a tertiary course also receive an ATAR. Congratulations to all students who completed their VCE this year. I wish them well in their future endeavours.  More information about student achievement will be shared.

I would like to wish all of our senior students and families a Merry Christmas and safe and relaxing break.
