Following the initial information sessions in Term 1, students are now undertaking one-on-one mentoring consultations to support informed and strategic decision making. Clear timelines have been communicated and all Year 10 students are expected to finalise and submit their subject preferences via Edval by the end of Term 2. This deadline supports the timely development of the 2026 senior timetable and ensures students are placed in subjects aligned with their goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Year 12 Preparation for HSC Trial Examinations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As Year 12 students prepare for the Trial Examinations in early Term 3 and HSC exams in October, the College has introduced targeted academic support. Thursday afternoon sport will be temporarily replaced with subject specific study sessions and supervised private study to maximise revision time. Students have received the official Trial Examination Timetable and instructions outlining exam protocols. We encourage all students to review these carefully. To support preparation, the College will also offer Mock Exams and subject workshops during the July holiday break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Illness and Misadventure Application Process<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure greater accessibility and consistency, the Illness and Misadventure Application process is now available online for all students in Years 7\u201312. This process must be followed when a student is unable to complete or submit an assessment due to illness, misadventure, or other approved circumstances. To assist families, a one-page Assessment Procedures Guide has been developed in a question and answer format, outlining common scenarios, required documentation and the consequences of non-compliance. Key expectations include the submission of the online form within five school days of the task due date. For students in Years 7\u20138, a signed parent or carer note is sufficient; for Years 9\u201312, a doctor\u2019s certificate or other official documentation is required. We thank families for their continued support in upholding fair and transparent assessment processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the school year unfolds, our focus remains on nurturing each student\u2019s growth by ensuring they have access to the right support, guidance and learning opportunities. We are committed to creating a learning environment where every student feels encouraged, valued and equipped to reach their full potential, both academically and personally.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ms Monique Brame Term 2 has seen continued momentum in the curriculum space, with key initiatives including the ongoing Stage 6 2026 Subject Selection process, structured support for Year 12 ahead of the HSC Trial Examinations and improved procedures to assist students managing assessment challenges.
