FROM THE CURRICULUM OFFICE
Year 7 and Year 9 NAPLAN
During Week 3 and 4 of Term 2 students will be completing their NAPLAN tests online. In preparation for these important tests students will be instructed to download the NAP APP which is the locked down browser used for these tests. In coming weeks students will sit a practice Omnibus Test. Students must ensure they bring a charged computer and their charger, as well as earphones. Students do not need to be computer experts to take the NAPLAN test online. Making sure students have computer skills is part of our school curriculum, and our teachers will ensure your child is familiar with the online format. Students are encouraged to practice using the online tools and the style of questions by accessing the Public Demonstration Site.http://www.nap.edu.au/online-assessment/public-demonstration-site
OOAAA (Often Outstanding and Awesome Application Award)
How it works: Each fortnight, teachers nominate students from their classes for the award. This nomination appears as a Positive Affirmation on Sentral.
One name in each year group will be randomly selected from the fortnight pool of
nominations. This will be drawn at assembly and the student will receive a canteen voucher.
