From the Leader of Wellbeing - Year 9

Hello Year 9 parents, guardians and students, 

Time flies when you’re learning and growing! We’ve officially reached the halfway point of the school term, and it’s the perfect time to reflect on all that has been accomplished so far while looking ahead to what’s still to come.

Our Year 9 students continue to impress with their growth, not just academically but as well-rounded individuals. Teachers have shared positive feedback about their resilience, teamwork, and willingness to support one another. It is wonderful to see them developing into responsible, kind, and motivated young people. As they progress through the term, we encourage them to keep striving to be the best versions of themselves, embracing challenges with confidence and determination.

Academic Progress 

Students have been working hard across all subjects. Year 9 still has a lot of room to grow regarding their application; however, as the term progresses, I encourage them to seek help and feedback from their teachers, to also take this opportunity to review their progress, identify areas for improvement, and set goals for the remainder of the term. 

NAPLAN

In Week 6, year 9 had begun their NAPLAN testing covering the areas of writing, reading and numeracy. I hope all year 9 students did their best, attempted every question and answered to the best of their ability. 

Extracurricular Highlights
Beyond the classroom, students have been actively participating in sports, clubs, and school events. The enthusiasm and commitment from students have been outstanding. A big thank you to all coaches, teachers, and volunteers who help make these activities possible!

Assessment Tasks

We are approaching that part of the term in which assessment tasks have been given to students. You need to stay engaged and on top of your progress with these tasks. Now is the time for our students to stay focused, maintain good study habits, and continue giving their best effort.

Final message to year 9

A lot of you continue to impress me with your maturity and how you handle yourselves in the dynamic world of high school. As your Leader of Wellbeing, it is great to see how much some of you have grown in this sense from where you started in year 7. Remember to be kind to those around you, it does not take much effort to be kind, and kindness goes a long way. I look forward to hearing more positive feedback about the students in Year 9. 

Remember, 

ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING
