Year 7 to 12 Interviews

The Year 9, 10 and 12 Parent/Teacher/Student Interviews will be held on Tuesday, 23 July and Year 7, 8 and 11 interviews will be held on Monday, 29 July. Interviews on both of these days will take place between 8.30am and 6.30pm.

All interviews will be held by Zoom and a video on how to set up a Zoom Meeting has been provided by IT here.

Bookings for these interviews can be made through the Parent Lounge in TASS. Bookings will open on Monday, 24 June at 9am and will close on Friday, 19 July at 3.30pm for Year 9, 10 and 12, and Friday, 26 July at 3.30pm for Year 7, 8 and 11.

There will be no classes or sport training for any Senior School students on either of these days.

A list of zoom account numbers will be sent by IT to all parents prior to the interview dates. This will usually be a day or two before the interviews. You do not need the zoom code to make your bookings.

In order to have staff available to as many families as possible, interviews will be of 5 minutes duration. To make the process as efficient as possible and to minimise lost time, we ask that you don’t make consecutive bookings and leave at least a five minute gap between your bookings to allow time to move between meetings with the teachers.

The following staff will not be available for interviews;

As we are well into Term 2, with a myriad of assignments well underway and preparations for the upcoming Trial and HSC exams already starting to take off, the senior library team have given the HSC resources section a much needed ‘face-lift’!

After looking at how to make the section more user friendly, in consultation with last year’s Year 12 students, we found that simple subject signage, instead of the traditional dewey system signs, would be easier to navigate.

Students are now able to see exactly where the study guides and past exam papers are for their selected subjects and in the case of Mathematics and English, sorted by strand as well, ensuring that they can find their chosen resources easier and quicker, with a few students saying that it is much more ‘practical’ and more ‘user friendly’ :)

We are constantly updating the section, adding new study resources regularly and we are always open to any recommendations!

We hope that this ‘revitalised’ resource section is of greater help for our senior students, with many borrowings ahead!

This Term Elevate Education delivers high-impact workshops to our students that help to develop their study skills, motivation, and exam preparation. Over the Term, you are invited to join their parent webinar series, where you can help support your child at home by reinforcing the skills they are learning at school.

Elevate Education’s free webinars for Term 2 will take place on the following Wednesdays:

• 22 May 6:30pm: Help Your Child Prepare for Exams

Parents learn how to help their child revise effectively, prioritise high-impact work, and build good routines in the run up to exams.

• 5 June 6:30pm: Help Support Your Child during Exams

Parents learn how to help their child manage stress and anxiety during exams, and how they can maximise marks in the exam room.

• 19 June 6:30pm: Ask Me Anything (Live Q&A)

Parents can ask the Elevate study skills experts any burning questions in the run-up to exams. This is a great opportunity to ask any questions you feel have been unanswered by Elevate in their webinars so far, whether that relates to your child’s study space, their motivation levels or the way they study.
