Curriculum Update – Miss Israel

Remote Learning

I hope this finds you staying safe in these difficult times. As a community, we are all pulling together for the best Teaching/Learning experiences possible for the students of MMCC.

Please be aware that staff are leaving classwork on Compass and you can see exactly the school work that your daughter is expected to be completing. If there are any issues around technology, internet access etc, please reach out so that we can assist. Everything is electronic at the moment and I am aware that this may create difficulties.

Assessments are a constantly changing entity at the moment with Year 7 to 11 not returning to school until Week 8. Leaders of Key Learning Areas are working at making assessment tasks viable for our students and equitable and as a result, the dates are constantly changing.

The best way to be across all the upcoming tasks is to use the calendar on Compass to assist you.

 

  1. Select the calendar icon

 

    2. Under the Month, is a list of calendars you can see (you will not see all of these)

 

 

     3. If it is a lighter shade of colouring such as:

Then you need to click on that calendar for it to appear on your visible options.

If you select all of the Year groups relevant to your daughter, then the following should show up

 

I would also recommend including the MMCC Public Calendar.

As dates and types of assessment tasks change, staff should also notify your daughter via an email with the Assessment Notification attached. A reminder that the illness/misadventure process as outlined in the Assessment Handbooks (listed under favourites on Compass) still applies. If there is a need to indicate Illness or Misadventure for an assessment task, the online form is located here.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out on michelle.israel@syd.catholic.edu.au. Please stay safe, and stay in communication with us.

Yours sincerely
Miss Michelle Israel, Leader of Curriculum
