It is important to note that there are a number of students who have excelled in individual subjects during Term 1 and 2. A common goal for everyone in this second half of the year is to be consistent across all courses with the effort and application applied to learning and to implement strategies to experience learning growth. This mindset of improvement certainly also applies to the students in Year 11 and 12 as they prepare for their upcoming HSC and Preliminary exams
Year 12 Parent/Teacher/Student Interviews

Parent/Teacher/Student Interviews provide an opportunity for parents, students and teachers to meet with their class teachers to review academic progress and discuss areas for growth. This conversation provides parents and students with valuable feedback and enables them to ask questions to support their child as they near the completion of their High School Certificate. Interviews for Year 12 2023 are being held on Wednesday September 6 between 4pm and 8pm in the Champagnat Centre. Further to the upcoming interviews, please note that Academic Reports will be distributed at the Graduation Ceremony and will be made available via Compass in Week 10. Bookings will close at 3pm on Tuesday 5 September.
