A huge term for Year 12!

Our Year 12 students have entered their busiest period of their two-year senior journey. Later in the term, ten of our students will be sitting the Queensland Core Skills Test. The results of this test are used in the calculation of a student’s OP. It is a momentous occasion as our students will be the last group to sit the QCS. The group participated in another QCS preparation session this week with Mr Matt Rigby from Go Grammar Consulting. In addition to the QCS Test, all Year 12 students will have their major assessment pieces due by the end of the term for their final units. Our thoughts are with this group as they enter this important academic period.

Subject Selection in 2020

As we start to look ahead to 2020, it has come time to start to think about subject selections. After conducting a review of our subject offerings, there are a number of changes to our subject offerings next year. These changes will require students entering Years 9, 10 and 11 in 2020 to select subjects. To keep parents and students informed, we will be holding a Subject Selection Evening on Wednesday 7 August in the Performing Arts Centre. Subject selection forms will be distributed on the evening. The following is schedule for the evening:

A letter will be sent home to all students with additional details.

Subject selections are an important component of a student’s journey through the Senior Years. I look forward to seeing many students and their parents at these sessions.
