Starting the Year
At the start of Term 1 school diaries and timetables will be issued to all Year 8 students and please familiarise yourself with the Year 8 Stationery List for 2021.
Year 8 Assessment Calendar
The Year 8 Assessment Calendar is a guide to due dates and other important information for Year 8. Individual class submission dates may vary due to the respective class timetables. The calendar is indicative of the week that a task will fall due. For courses where there is no formal written exam, assessment may fall due in class during the assessment or exam week.
Illness and Misadventure
Our Illness/Misadventure application form is the correct way to apply for extensions of assignment due dates and special consideration regarding examinations.
