A Reminder for Year 3 to 6 Families about the 2025 ICAS Competitions
Once again this year, we are offering our girls in Year 3 to 6 the opportunity to participate in ICAS assessments. ICAS is an online academic competition designed to challenge students’ higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills. ICAS is suitable for those who are keen to engage in academically challenging, international assessment. You can learn more about ICAS here.
We will be offering four subjects – Digital Technologies, English, Science and Mathematics. The tests are conducted here at school and the sitting dates are below.

MLC School has signed up for the ICAS Assessments parent payment system (PPS), which allows parents/carers to pay for ICAS directly online. The cost per test is $20.95 (incl. GST). Please use this link to log into the shop and register your daughter no later than Friday 25 July. Take care when entering your daughter’s name into the system, as this is how it will appear on her certificate(s). You can read the ICAS Assessments terms and conditions here.
We are excited to be offering ICAS to our students again this year and look forward to celebrating their achievements. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about this year’s ICAS competitions.
