Year 12 Trial Examinations 

Currently, our Year 12 are finalising their Year 12 Trial Exams. The students have conducted themselves well, it is clear that they have been working hard behind the scenes preparing themselves. I would also like to thank the Year 12 teachers for the hard work and dedication that they have put in to support the Year 12 students to prepare them for their exams.

Over the coming weeks, Year 12 will receive feedback from their teachers, which is informed advice to support them moving forward. This feedback is valuable to add to support their Higher School Certificate.
