Important Dates for Yr 10 Subject Selection
Monday 6 June was the Sydney University and UAC Information Evening. Yr 10 packed Dunnett Hall! Thank you to all students and families for coming along and prioritising this event to receive first-hand information around student ATAR scores, scaling and prerequisite requirements from Sydney University and UAC. If you missed this event, please check the UAC website or encourage your child to book an appointment with Justine Fowler or Claire Hurst, Redlands University and Careers Advisors by sending an email to careers@redlands.nsw.edu.au.
Subject Selection Guidance Conversations are continuing this week and Tuesday next week. Many Yr 10 students have already engaged in their guidance conversation and have demonstrated ownership over this process. We look forward to a few more days of conversations, a weekend to consider options and students are asked to submit their choices by Wednesday 15 June.
A letter from Ms Gemma Van de Peer was sent to all Yr 10 parents on Wednesday. Please check this communication for further information regarding the final stages of the Subject Selection Process.
Man Cave – Parent Support Leading Up to Wednesday 15 June
Thank you to all students and parents for support of The Man Cave event taking place next week for all male students in Yr 10. The best way we can support the boys is by also ensuring the community around them is supported too. Please visit the link below as preparation for you to support the boys during this time.

In these last few weeks of term, a dedicated crew of Yr 10 students have been planning a service initiative for a monetary and goods collection for The Wayside Chapel. The Wayside Chapel is a charity and parish mission of the Uniting Church in Australia in the Potts Point area of Sydney.

Congratulations to all runners who competed at the CIS Cross-Country carnival which was held Wednesday at the Sydney Motor Sport Park. Conditions were perfect for XC and the course was fast as it was on the actual race course this year.
Congratulations to both Isaac Brooks – 16 years Boys 6k – 14th place; and Gianmarco Pradel – 16 years Boys 6k – 36th place.
