Year 8

General

I congratulate the Yr 8 cohort on starting the term well, and also welcoming our new students warmly.

In Tutor Time, Tutors have been following up with uniform infringements and Approach To Learning conversations with students. Tutor Groups have also been spending time on academic care, with assessments in the following subjects falling this term: Languages, Dance, Drama, English, Mathematics, Music, Science and Visual Arts. If any students are feeling overwhelmed with their academic load, please encourage them to speak with their Tutor, who can begin to organise assistance.

Science/Service Excursion

On Monday 28 May (Week 5) Yr 8 students will be going on a Science/Service excursion to the Sydney Institute of Marine Science. Students are asked to bring lunch, water and snacks as there are no shops nearby. Students should wear PE uniform, and are encouraged to wear tracksuit pants and bring a raincoat, as the excursion is mostly outdoors.

Yr 8 Parent Teacher Night

This will take place on Wednesday 8 August (Term 3, Week 3). Booking information will be emailed to parents before the event.
