Welcome to the last Term of the Year! Term 4 is always packed full of exciting activities and a final push to complete all assessments and exams. As we return to school a quick reminder for students to continue meeting the expectations here at the college. Full school uniform in particular, no hoodies or alternative shoes. Arriving at school and all their classes on time, prepared with all the learning materials for their classes. This goes a long way in setting themselves up for success.
This Term, our Year 9 students will have the exciting opportunity to attend TAFE courses at The Gordon, gaining valuable hands-on experience in a range of practical fields.
These programs allow students to explore pathways in areas such as automotive, hospitality, building and construction, hair and beauty, and more, while developing real-world skills that complement their classroom learning.
Participating in TAFE gives students a taste of vocational education and training, helping them make informed decisions about their future careers. We’re incredibly proud of their commitment, enthusiasm, and the way they are representing our school in a professional learning environment.
Next week (Friday 24/10), we will be celebrating our school’s annual Multicultural Festival, a highlight of the term and school year! Students, staff, and families come together to recognise and embrace the diverse cultures that make up our school community. The day is filled with vibrant performances, delicious food, and cultural displays that showcase the talents and traditions of our students. We would love to see as many students and families as possible on the day!
With exams approaching in week seven, students are reminded to stay focused and organised as they work towards achieving satisfactory results in all subjects. Teachers are finalising last assessments and will then be providing revision materials and study tips to support students in their preparation. Consistent effort, good study habits, and asking for help when needed, are key to success. We’re confident our students will finish the term with a strong sense of achievement and pride in their progress.
