Starting the Year
At the start of Term 1 timetables are issued to all of our Year 8 students, they are also available through Sentral, which can be accessed by computer or smartphone.
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.
