ACADEMIC REPORTS AND STAGE 4 & 5 ACADEMIC PROGRESS AWARDS

As we near the end of Semester One, it is essential to reflect upon our students’ achievements and celebrate their hard work, dedication, and learning in Years 7 to 10.  On Wednesday 26 June 2024, reports will be issued to parents and carers via COMPASS at 4pm. The report is an invaluable tool that allows teachers and parents to assess a student’s progress. It overviews their academic performance, highlighting their achievements in various subjects, effort, behaviour, and overall growth.

The Stage 4 & 5 Progress Awards Assembly will take place on Monday, July 1, 2024. It is an opportunity to recognize and celebrate our students’ achievements.There will be two awards nominated by each class teacher for each subject in Years 7 to 10:

ACADEMIC MERIT Awards for consistent and/or improved effort by students. ACADEMIC PROGRESS Awarded for high levels of academic achievement, commitment to learning and consistently strong aspiration during Semester One.

Beyond the symbolic significance of receiving an award, the Stage 4 & 5 Progress Awards Assembly is a powerful motivator for students. It reinforces the value of hard work, determination, and the pursuit of excellence. By publicly recognising student achievements, we encourage them to strive for greatness, set higher goals, and explore their full potential. It is important to remember that the awards are not solely about recognising the top achievers. We also value the progress and growth of each student, acknowledging their individual accomplishments and applauding their personal achievements.

Towards the year’s conclusion, more formal awards assemblies will be held to celebrate academic achievement, to which parents, carers and the broader College community will be invited.
