As we approach the end of Term 2, our Year 11 and 12 VCE students are fully immersed in their exams this week. Last month, they tackled their practice General Achievement Test (GAT) on 21 May, gearing up for the official GAT scheduled for Tuesday 18 June (details below). We’re proud to see their dedication and hard work.
Meanwhile, our Year 10 students are diving into their work experience program, set to run during the final week of term from 24 to 28 June. In addition, Year 10 core exams are scheduled for Friday 14 June and Monday 17 June.
