Building strong study habits

The middle weeks of Term 3 are always a busy period, filled with planning for the next term and even the year ahead. For our students in Years 7 to 11, this means making important decisions about their learning programs for the following year. It’s natural for students to feel some pressure, as these choices can seem like they carry long-term implications. While it is important to plan with the future in mind, our Year 7 to 10 curriculum is intentionally designed to provide a broad range of subjects, giving students the flexibility to explore their interests.

For our Year 12 students, the countdown is on - with fewer than 30 days of scheduled classes remaining in their final year. Their study preparations are well underway, and many are working hard to achieve their final goals. For students in the junior years, it’s important to remember that successful exam preparation doesn’t start when there are only 30 days left - it begins much earlier. Building strong study habits throughout the junior years lays the foundation for success. Our Year 10 and 11 students still have eight weeks of classes before their exams, providing a valuable opportunity to prepare thoroughly.

Congratulations to all students who received Semester Awards at our recent Semester 1 Celebration of Excellence. Your hard work and dedication to your studies is something to be proud of. At the same time, we acknowledge the many students who may not have received an award but still achieved remarkable results through consistent effort and commitment. Whether recognised on stage or not, every student who strives for their personal best should feel a strong sense of accomplishment. Congratulations to all who continue to pursue excellence in everything they do.

Mr Joshua Di Pietro
Deputy Principal Learning and Teaching

We celebrated our Semester 1 Celebration of Excellence, recognising students across all year levels for their consistent application to studies and academic excellence. It was a joy to welcome so many parents and families to share the occasion, and to enjoy the wonderful vocal and performing arts performances that added to the spirit of the morning.

Our Year 10 Chinese language students recently took part in a China Cultural Day in Box Hill. The program featured lively music performances, engaging cultural activities, and a delicious Chinese lunch. It was a joyful and enriching day, giving students the chance to deepen both their cultural appreciation and language learning

During English Week, students participated in a number of literary events including matching the favourite book to a student or staff member, short-story writing and library activities. Well done to all participants!
