This award recognises the positive contributions these students have made to both the MLC School and broader community. Well done to the following students:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2013 Chloe Lu<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>\u2013 Melisande Pitman<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>\u2013 Mia Waterhouse<br \/>\n\u2013 Caydence Sumantri<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Academic Care<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This week was a busy one for Year 9, with many students completing or submitting multiple assessment tasks. With this in mind, the focus for the Luminary program this week was on academic wellbeing. Each student had the opportunity to have a one-on-one conversation with their Luminary about how they were managing their time, their goals and what support they might need. Students also completed a goal-setting exercise in preparation for their supervised study period held on Wednesday during <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebuzz.net.au\/mlc\/?post_type=article&amp;p=37609\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Academic Care<\/a>. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With more assessment tasks upcoming over the next two weeks, I also encourage students to ensure they are using the resources on their Academic Care Canvas page. This page also includes the worksheets shared through Dr Salter\u2019s Study Skills workshop in Year 7. A reminder that Dr Salter\u2019s study skills site can also be accessed by you at home to support your daughter to develop productive study habits and practices:<\/p>\n<p>Access can be found at:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.studyskillshandbook.com.au%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7Ceditor%40mlcsyd.nsw.edu.au%7Cef431029e94f4d0f7cbe08dd56babb7e%7C297d50d8e5fd4f0b837b06f6611d7cf1%7C0%7C0%7C638762082201338302%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=yxVA1TQEeQzR0jYI7r39DDFhKBtpTmbWbWbh4Ig0oXI%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.studyskillshandbook.com.au<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Username:\u00a0<strong>MLCSchool\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nPassword:\u00a0<strong>14achieve\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Year 9 Adventure Camp<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Next week, students in Year 9 who are attending the Adventure camp will have an information session with Urban Challenge.
