From the Curriculum Team
As we wrap up week 2 for Term 2, it is great to see so many students back to the campus getting on with their academics. We welcome back Year 11 and Year 12 and as of Wednesday, Year 10 back on campus. We have had many other students back on campus from the beginning of Term 2 and they were happy to be back. As we continue taking advice from our government officials, we also understand each family have to follow what works best for them in the meantime to keep everyone safe. We are here in Curriculum to support each student as we move forward and slowly regain school life back to some sense of normalcy but being safe as we do so. Helping teachers keep classroom environments safe and comfortable for everyone while getting on with the learning is a key aspect everyone can do.
From a Curriculum point of view, we now need to focus on closing any gaps in learning, if any, for any student, authenticate any assessments necessary and plan a move forward as we continue to revise and adjust assessment outlines designed for timing in regards to the rest of year. Your teachers are very eager to have you back in class and get on with teaching and learning- they are your best resource! It is important that students do not stress about the days ahead as we readjust assessment timelines. Your teachers are again, your best source of information.
Year 12, Year 11 and Year 10 will have new information in regards to the timing of Semester 1 exams sent to all students and families in the coming weeks. Please note we will give you all information and time tables at this time. If there are any queries in regards to any assessment and/or exams, seek advice from your teacher, Head of Learning of that course and Mrs Eyre and Mrs Kelly in Curriculum.
