Dear Families,
As we near the end of Term 3, it is timely to pause and reflect on the learning opportunities and milestones that have taken place across our College community.
On Wednesday 7 August, all Year 9–11 students participated in the College’s Subject Selection Conferences. Each student attended a one-on-one appointment with a course counsellor to carefully consider their 2026 subject choices. These conversations are an important milestone in each student’s learning journey, allowing them to reflect on their strengths, passions, and future aspirations. We hope that this day was both exciting and inspiring, encouraging our students to take ownership of their learning pathways and to see the possibilities that lie ahead.
Our Year 7 and Year 9 students recently received their NAPLAN results, while our Year 8 and Year 10 students received their Academic Assessment Services results. These standardised assessments help us gain a deeper understanding of student progress and achievement whilst providing insight into areas where improvements can be made in both literacy and numeracy. This data is used by teachers, parents, and the College community, as it guides our efforts to support future student learning.
The College is pleased to share the results of the 2024 NAPLAN tests with our community. We celebrate that the combined proportion of students achieving in the Strong or Exceeding bands across all domains is at or above both state and national levels. This is an outstanding achievement and reflects the hard work of our students and the commitment of our teachers to delivering high-quality learning. A full breakdown of these results can be found in the tables below.
While we celebrate these successes, we are also committed to continual improvement. Analysis of both current and past results has highlighted that some of our Christ the King students require further support in numeracy. In response, we have introduced a new mathematics tutoring initiative for selected students in Years 7–9 at Christ the King. This program is designed to provide targeted support and intervention, ensuring that every student has the skills and confidence they need to thrive in mathematics and beyond.
For our Year 12 students, the coming weeks mark an important transition. They are now completing their final pieces of coursework before moving into their Trial Examinations, which will commence on Thursday, 18 September. We wish our senior students the very best as they prepare for these assessments. The September school holidays will no doubt be a critical time for focused revision as they build towards their final VCAA examinations later this year.
