The Year 7 to 11 Half Yearly and Year 12 Interim Reports will be mailed out to parents in the first week of the school holiday period. A significant review was undertaken last year with students, staff and parents concerning the College Reports. The feedback from all stakeholders within our community has lead us to developing new Reports in 2018 that provide parents with more information concerning the pastoral wellbeing and academic progress of each student.
In addition you and your son can access his progress and results 24/7 via Canvas. If you have yet to attend one of Parent workshops in using Canvas this year we urge you to book in for our Term 3 Workshops – July 31.
The following features can now be found in a Half Yearly Report:
1. Homeroom Report Page
