Middle Sub School Leader

As we approach the final weeks of Term 4, it’s an exciting and important time across the school community. Students are balancing preparation for upcoming exams, finishing off their final assessments and preparing for a new start of 2026 classes.

Exam Preparation

Teachers and students are working together to consolidate learning and ensure everyone feels confident heading into assessment time. Revision sessions, study tips, and targeted feedback are helping students strengthen their understanding and achieve their personal best. We encourage all students to maintain a balanced routine; prioritising rest, nutrition, and positive study habits to perform at their best. Exam Timetables have been shared on google classrooms for each year level. Remember to communicate with your teachers and Year Level Coordinators regarding absences and clashes.

Year 10 into 11 Orientation

Our Year 10 students are preparing to take the next step in their learning journey as they begin their senior studies. The Year 10 into 11 Orientation Program gives students a valuable introduction to the expectations, routines, and opportunities of senior school. Through workshops and subject previews, students are developing a clear sense of direction and motivation for the years ahead. It is expected that all students attend all of orientation from the 24/11 to the 5/12.

End-of-Year Activities

To celebrate another successful school year, a range of engaging and rewarding activities are planned for the final weeks of term. These events provide a chance for students and staff to reflect on achievements, strengthen friendships, and enjoy time together before the holidays. We look forward to recognising the hard work, growth, and accomplishments of all our students. Paper forms were handed out to Year 9 students last week and can be filled out and returned at the times listed on the paperwork.

The Man Cave

Our Year 9 boys will have the opportunity to participate in The Man Cave incursion next week. A small blurb about the program is below.

What is The Man Cave?

The Man Cave is a preventative mental health charity empowering communities to raise generations of healthy young men. Our vision is a world where every man has healthy relationships, contributes to his community and reaches his full potential. Using evidence-based workshops and expert facilitation, our programs provide boys with the critical emotional and social skills they need to become self-aware, respectful, and emotionally mature men.
