NAPLAN

On Wednesday and Thursday last week the Grade 3 and 5 students undertook NAPLAN which included tests on Writing, Reading, Conventions of Language and Numeracy. It was great to see all student apply themselves and try their best during this time. We have a couple of practice tests to be undertaken over this week for students who were absent for the initial test sessions. NAPLAN results will be released during Term 3 and distributed to participating student’s families. Thank you to Michelle for coordinating and facilitating the tests last week.
