ing two assessments each day. Their examination
Dear Parents and Caregivers, While this week has been a four day week due to the Queen’s Birthday long weekend, it ends with a bit of a bang for all Year 7 - Year 11 students as they start their Half Yearly Examinations today. The study and revision week in the lead up to this set of assessments has been quiet with not much happening at school outside of the academic programme, which is appropriate for students to quieten down and engage with their individual preparations for the upcoming challenge.
timetable is included in their Exam Guidebook as are all the expectations for each exam.
They
should be actively ensuring that their preparation is in line with what is required of them by their teachers. Students may not leave school between examinations but once they have completed a day’s examinations they may go home to prepare for the following day. Should students not be able to get home until later, they are more than welcome to stay at school and work in the Library or a classroom.
An email outlining the changes to next
Middle School students will write all their examina- week’s schedule has been sent to all parents today. tions during the course of next week, normally writ-
Students on the Bondi Campus will write their examinations up to and including the last day of term as they have become accustomed. Should they not have an exam on a day, they may stay at home and study.
This week many of the Performing Arts subjects have culminated
their
term
with
practical
assess-
ments. Mr Montgomery reports that “Year 9 Elective Drama students undertook a study of Shakespeare, staging Romeo and Juliet as part of their Half Yearly Examination. They learned to appreciate the rhythm of his language and explore the issues faced by the star-crossed lovers and the turmoil of family obligations prevalent throughout the play. Congratulations to our Drama students for making creative theatrical choices and delivering strong moments of conviction. Well done Year 9 Drama students.”
