A reminder to families of Years 3, 5 and 7, NAPLAN is in Week 3 & 4, 14 – 22 May. Please ensure these dates are in your diaries and that your children are promptly at school on these days as the assessment time frames start in the morning block.  NAPLAN tests the essential skills for every child to progress through school and life, such as Reading, Writing, Spelling, Grammar and Numeracy. It is important to remember that NAPLAN is not about passing or failing but about assessing learning progress. It is one test on one day, not a representation of all your child's strengths and abilities.  

Please feel free to contact your child's teacher or the Leadership Team if you have any questions at all about the NAPLAN Assessment Program. Results for individual students will be sent home to families once they arrive at the school later in the year.  

Our teachers have been working with students to ensure that they are prepared and confident for the NAPLAN Assessment.  I am sure that all students participating will demonstrate their personal best.
