Term 3 is proving to be a very busy time for our Year 12 students.
The Trial HSC Exams concluded on Monday. Eleven days, thirty-three courses and more than eight hundred individual examination papers were completed. This included nine Year 11 accelerated students who completed their exams in Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1. Well done to all of the Year 12 students for their efforts over the examination period.
The Year 12 teachers are now busily marking, writing feedback and preparing final report comments for this wonderful group of students.
Term 3 is also the time for students completing subjects with major projects and performances to submit and present their work to NESA for marking. Already, the Society and Culture projects have been sent to NESA. The Industrial Technology Timber projects have been handed in. Extension English 2 is due this week, with Drama and Design and Technology in Week 6 and then the Visual Arts projects and Music compositions and performances to follow.
Students who are studying a language are also beginning part of their HSC examination with the HSC Speaking Exams being held each Saturday at various locations across Sydney.
Holly F, a Year 11 student just completed three HSC performance exams for Year 12 Dance. She is now getting ready for the written component of her HSC exams in November. Well done, Holly.
Many of our Year 12 students are receiving early entry offers for 2023 university placements. It’s an exciting time for them, and it is the very best part of my job when I hear about their plans for life post-school. I am sure that you will join me in praying for them over the coming months as they prepare for their examinations and make decisions about their future pathways.
