SRC announcement

Mia Tsakos and Grace Bettar were voted by their peers to represent the cohort at SRC. Mia and Grace will work collaboratively with the Vice–Captains and SRC Representatives from Year 7–Year 11. I congratulate our new SRC Representatives for this appointment and opportunity to work with a range of students towards new student initiatives.

Assessment and the future

While our IB cohort are busy working on the early stages of Extended Essays and Internal Assessments that contribute towards their final marks, our HSC students are about to embark on assessments that contribute to their final HSC marks. This is the dawning of a realisation that the work the year group are managing now goes beyond their next report mark. As the focus is heating up for many of them, we all need to be mindful that this additional pressure will take its toll, and extra check-ins both at School and at home will go a long way in managing stress levels. In many of the cases, asking ‘how can I help’ will go further and have more impact as opposed to telling the students to do more work.

Student Progress Conversations

Student progress conversations are occurring on Tuesday 25 November 2025 and Wednesday 26 November 2025. Students of the Year 12 2026 cohort, along with their families are invited to engage in conversations regarding their engagement in learning with a staff member at the school.

Further information will be posted soon.
