Trial HSC Examinations<\/h4>\n

I wish all Year 12 students the best with their upcoming examinations, commencing this Monday (Week 3). A lot of preparation and study has been undertaken by students, including workshops during the holidays just past. Hard work and study will produce the reward of results.<\/p>\n

Year 11 FLEX program<\/h4>\n

Year 11 students will participate in the FLEX program on Monday and Tuesday of Week 3 (1 and 2 August). The schedule and arrangement details can be accessed via Student Cloudshare<\/a>. Year 11 students need only attend for workshops and can access Jarnosse for private study on these days.<\/p>\n

Managing Overwhelm<\/h4>\n

I’ve noticed in my classes a common response from students when talking about assessments, especially class tests and examinations. Many students say, just before them “I’m stressed”. Left unchecked, it can lead to overwhelm. I often respond to students and say, “are you stressed or are feeling pressured about your performance?”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"In Semester One, I challenged families to review the homework habits of their daughters. Homework, including private study, is a very practical way of managing to prevent overwhelm in students. Another is having a term planner created and pinned up. As the 6P rules says: ‘Prior Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance<\/strong>‘.<\/p>\n

I encourage all students to ensure that they have mapped out the coming term. A term planner can be found on Student Cloudshare.<\/a><\/p>\n

If your daughter regularly indicates that she is stressed about in-class tests and examinations, this special report on School TV<\/a><\/em> may be useful for understanding the surrounding psychology.<\/p>\n
