Our year has started with some Start Smart Workshops, presented by Chantelle Deluca.  This program, funded by the Commonwealth Bank, aims to develop students’ financial literacy around smart choices, smart spending, smart earning, and smart enterprise.  This is the third year we have participated in these seminars and trust that our students have been able to glean some practical hints and tips about being smart with their money.

Now that students have started their various courses of study, I would like to remind you of the importance of checking in with Connect.  All course information, including course content and assessment outlines, can be sourced in the Library section of Connect.  Teachers will also use Connect to post notices regarding assessment tasks and upload relevant learning links. 

All students continue to have access to Mathspace [http://mathspace.co/] in 2021, and it has been great to see many taking advantage of this wonderful resource to assist with their learning. Please contact your child’s teacher if login details have been forgotten over the summer holidays.

Maths Homework Club continues again this year on Wednesday afternoons between 3pm - 4pm in A5. Students from all years are encouraged to come along and study with support from members of our team. 

Please feel free to contact your child’s teacher, or Head of Learning Area, if you have any concerns regarding your child’s learning program or progress throughout this year.
