Year 10 Report
I hope our wonderful students and families had a restful break and are ready for an exciting and productive term ahead. There is a lot happening this term with the first round of OLNA already completed. Well done to those who participated in Week 2 and 3.
Course selections coming soon:
It’s an exciting time as students begin thinking about their future pathways. The course selection process will commence soon and we encourage families to start conversations at home about interest, strengths and goals. There will be an information evening held on Thursday 5th June where we will share information about the WACE, course selection for Year 11 and 12 pathways, and the Subject Selection Online process.
Exams – Week 7 & 8:
This term the Year 10’s will experience exams for the first time. These assessments are a great opportunity for students to demonstrate their learning and prepare for the rigours of senior school. The schedule will be released closer to the date.
Rewards Day Returns:
I am very excited to announce the return of our Semester One Rewards Day. Tuesday 1st July we are heading to Strike at Carousel for an afternoon of bowling and mini golf – a fun way to celebrate those who have maintained their Good Standing. Permission forms will be handed out in Mentor to those students who have good standing.
Attendance Process
If your child is absent from school, please notify us as soon as possible. You can do so by:
- SMSing the school on 0407 384 039
- Emailing kalamunda.shs@education.wa.edu.au
Alternatively, after 11:00 AM, you will receive an absence SMS. You can simply click the link provided in this message and submit a reason for your child's absence. This allows us to accurately record and manage attendance for your child.
Uniform Expectations
It’s been fantastic to see so many students returning in their correct school uniforms. A friendly reminder to ensure your child in the correct school uniform, especially as the temperature starts to drop. A quick reminder: hoodies, grey and black track pants are not part of the school uniform.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at Teagen.Smith@education.wa.edu.au or 9293 6400.
