Connect - Semester Report Review

In Connect this week, students have reviewed their Semester 1 Reports to find parts that they are proud of, but also highlight some parts they wish to improve on; during the lesson they set an academic goal for the rest of 2026, which they will monitor with their Connect teacher. 

This is a great opportunity for students to refocus on their aims for their learning as we fly through Term 3!

If families wish to have some more information on accessing their child's Semester 1 Report so they can discuss their goal with them, please find it in the resource below:

If you have any questions about your child’s Semester 1 reports, we encourage you to reach out to the teacher of the subject in question.
