Trial HSC and Preliminary Examinations Term 3

All students have received their examination timetables. For almost all subjects, the examinations have a significant assessment percentage weighting. Student achievement in the examinations could significantly improve a students final grade as well as improve their final rank in that subject.

Students should be studying regularly and practising past papers. In particular students should be studying throughout their holidays for their upcoming examinations.

Practical HSC Examinations

Students completing HSC Practical subjects should be consistently dedicating time to completing their projects over the coming holidays. All practical examinations will be held in the first 5 weeks of Term 3, with significant course HSC weightings applied to each project. Students will have the pressure of handing in or performing their final project as well as completing their Trial HSC Examinations. Therefore being organised is essential as well as consistent application to both the project(s) and study.

Year 9 Electives 2020 Portal

Students in Year 8 will have received a link to their Electives Subject Selection Portal. Students will be able to make their selections next term.
