FROM THE ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL

Congratulations to Year 12 for completing their study at school - there will be more time to celebrate after the exams end (not before) but we wish you every success in the HSC and your future endeavours

This week is also the start of Stay Healthy HSC Check-In week across NSW.

  • Check-In Week is an opportunity to check in with HSC students before they head out the school gates and prepare for their last lap – HSC written exams!
  • Students Stay Healthy HSC hub for wellbeing tips.
  • HSC Check-In Week kit and

Year 12 HSC examinations / Timetable

These will be added to Compass for students. Every student should log into Students Online to ensure their personal details are correct and to change their email to a private one so you can access results. Your school email will be void.

 

Illness and Misadventure during the HSC examinations

NESA has its own forms and these are on the Yr 12 Google classroom page. It’s also vitally important that if any student is unwell or suffers from misadventure they contact either myself or the front office asap on the morning of the exam

  • Illness - this is for illness on the day or immediately prior to the exam. You MUST see a doctor on the day of the examination to have the correct form completed and in detail. The certificate can only cover you for 1 day and 1 exam.
  • Misadventure - anything that impacts the student immediately prior to the examination and is unforeseeable - you’ll need evidence e.g. photos, written statements from witnesses.

Remember HSC exams cannot be rescheduled and you must attend to complete the  course completely OR  must have a valid reason supported by evidence to have the course counted if you do not turn up. Remember you can do exams if unwell and still put in an Illness/Misadventure Form.

Finally, well done Year 11 for completing your end of year exams. Have a great break and come back ready to start your HSC and final stage of schooling.

FROM THE DIRECTOR OF STUDIES 

Congratulations to all Year 11 students on the conclusion of their end of course exams, which concluded on Thursday. Our students rose to the challenge and conducted themselves admirably throughout their examinations. I would like to acknowledge the work of teachers in preparing students for these exams. All the best with the marking of the exam papers! Year 11 students considering dropping a course of study as they head into Year 12 should wait until their exams have been returned, and their reports published, before requesting a change to their program. 
  
The end of Term 3 is the beginning of the College's Semester Two reporting season. Year 12 Reports will be available via Compass. Year 11 reports will be the next to be published, which will be available in Week 4 next term.
