Any early leave requests must be emailed through to the Head of Secondary School, Ms Gemma Van der Peer for permission. 

Ms Willis and I wish you all a happy and safe holiday period. Yr 7 have had a big year so far and I encourage all students (and parents) to find some time stop and reflect on the year that has been. We are looking forward to welcoming the cohort back on July 13 refreshed and ready to tackle Semester 2. 

ICAS Science

The 2021 International Competition and Assessment for Schools (ICAS) in Science will take place on Monday 23 August in school. This competition is undertaken by over 400,000 students across Australia and the region and is a rigorous test of scientific thinking. Participation in the competition provides our students with excellent examination practice and an opportunity to see how they fare in competition with students of their own age from across the country. Students who are interested in Science can use the test to assess areas of strength and weakness. Success at the test is a way of demonstrating aptitude when applying for Science related opportunities in and out of school.

Entry for students in Yrs 7-10 is voluntary. Please complete the form here Registration for ICAS before Monday 26 July if you would like your child to take part. (Plese note earlier registration date.) A fee of $16 will be charged to your account if you wish your child to participate.
