Year 9 and 10 Exams

A reminder that the Year 9 and 10 exams will be held in Week 6 (12th - 14th November). Students will be emailed a complete list of study guides shortly, which provide a great summary of what they should be addressing in their study.

It is encouraged that all students dedicate themselves to a study program leading into the exams. Homework will be reduced during weeks 5 and 6, as we want to encourage good study habits to be established in the lead up to exams.

If students are feeling anxious or nervous about the examination period, a couple great tools to reduce this stress would be:
1. Be prepared
2. Talk to trusted people (parents, teachers)
3. Stay in routine (sleep and eating habits)
4. Know that staff are in prayer for you during this time

Looking forward to a strong finish to the year

Year 10 Pastoral Care

Can you believe we are edging towards November already! Where has 2014 gone?
It is an exciting time of the year for year 10 students. Post exams, they are involved in several  initiatives such as obtaining a First Aid certificate, Community Service, Year 10 Camp along with a host of guest speakers coming in to run workshops for the students.

Students have been given a booklet which outlines all information and it is hoped that permission notes can begin to come back early next week. If there are any questions, please feel free to contact the College and speak to Mr Warren.
