High School's Term 3 Highlights
Term 3 - Always Action-Packed
It is hard to believe that 10 weeks have passed by so quickly. Term 3 has included camps, incursions, excursions and lots of engaging activities and it has ended in a flurry of assessments and exams. Teachers and students have had fun and have made many positive gains in the classroom. Reports will be released in the first week of the school holidays. Please spend some time sitting with your child and looking at the report and having positive conversations about how their results and feedback can be used to set goals for next term.

Year 12 - Finishing their King's Journey
Year 12 students completed their Trial Exams and have received constructive feedback from their teachers to prepare them for the official examination period early in Term 4. During the holiday period, the Year 12s are encouraged to continue studying and preparing for their External Assessments. This may involve completing past QCAA papers, drafting essays, practising writing techniques, creating notes, and actively reading topic summaries with a highlighter or pen. If students require any study advice, please encourage them to speak with their teachers. Please continue to pray for our Year 12 students as they prepare for their external examinations and final school celebration events.
From the Teaching and Learning Team in High School, we wish all families a safe and enjoyable holiday. We look forward to an exciting and engaging Term 4!
