Today we finished all NAPLAN testing.  As you know, this year it was our first time to complete all tests (except Year 3 writing) online.

  

The tests were spread out over the last two weeks, but had to be completed in a certain order.  This was due to the fact that some of the tests were tailor made, meaning, the reading, language conventions and numeracy were designed to suit your child's learning needs.  This system is much more effective and less threatening for the students.

  

Although there were some minor technical glitches, we were fortunate as a school that these didn't affect the overall performance of our students.

  

Well done to all our Year 3 and Year 5 students.

  

Also thank you to Mrs Manchur and Miss Jackson who were online Test Administrators for the first time, and to Mrs Meincke for all the hot milo's she made over the two weeks.
