As the final weeks of the academic year approach, there are a number of important events, timetable changes and transitions ahead. We encourage students and families to remain attentive to communications and maintain a positive focus on learning and the routines that will support a successful conclusion to 2026.

VCE Examinations
Congratulations to our VCE students who have now completed their examinations. We acknowledge the commitment, preparation and perseverance that have brought them to this important milestone. To those with examinations still ahead, we wish you every success in these final days and encourage you to remain focused and confident.

SHC Examinations
Our College examinations provide an important opportunity for students to consolidate their learning, demonstrate their knowledge and understanding, and reflect on their progress. They also help develop valuable skills in preparation, organisation, time management and independent study.

As Year 10 and 11 examinations commence, and our Junior School students prepare for theirs, we encourage all students to approach this period with a positive attitude and a strong sense of responsibility for their learning.

Separate communications have been shared with families outlining examination arrangements and expectations for each Year Level.

Step Up – Preparing for 2027
Following examinations, students will transition into their next year level through our whole-school Step Up program. This is an integral part of the academic year, providing a meaningful introduction to new subjects, curriculum content, teachers and learning expectations.

Attendance and active participation throughout Step Up are expected. These classes are not simply a preview of next year's work, but planned learning experiences that establish important foundations for 2027. Students are expected to attend all scheduled classes and approach their learning with the same commitment and responsibility demonstrated throughout the year.

We encourage all students to make the most of these final weeks. How we finish is just as important as how we begin, and we look forward to seeing students embrace the opportunities ahead.
