Learning and Teaching at the College
Remote Learning
As we continue with remote learning students are encouraged to establish and maintain structure and routine in their day to support their learning. Maintaining a regular wake up time and morning routine can assist in creating a focused and positive mindset for the day. Following the regular timetable including taking recess and lunch breaks can assist in making the learning activities being set by teachers manageable. Keeping in contact with class teachers is important to maintain the learning partnership between students, parents and teachers.
Year 11 Assessment Week
Year 11 Assessment Week will be running from 9 - 16 September. Due to the current remote learning circumstances, we will not be conducting traditional Year 11 Preliminary Examinations. Teachers have been working diligently to develop assessment tasks that will suit the needs of their subjects and that will allow students to demonstrate their knowledge and skills at the end of their Year 11 courses. The schedule and assessment notifications have been made available to students.
Year 12 PTS Interviews
At this stage of Year 12 the PTS interviews provide a valuable opportunity for teachers to provide feedback, advice and strategies to assist students in making their final preparations for the HSC. Interviews will be conducted via Zoom. Bookings for these interviews can be made via the parent Compass portal and will be open from next week.
