VCE VCAA exams

The finish line is finally in sight for our Year 12 students! After months of late-night study sessions, group chats filled with last-minute tips, and more cups of coffee than we care to count, the VCE VCAA exams have officially come to a close. But don’t get too comfortable just yet—results are still to come! Year 12 students can expect to receive their VCE results on December 12th. (We recommend a strong cup of tea and deep breaths on the day!)

Year 12 Graduation Night

Before we get to the results, however, we’ve got the highlight of the Year 12 calendar: Graduation Night! On November 27th, our Year 12s will step out in their finest attire to celebrate the end of 13 years of schooling, countless assignments, and a few too many "I’ll do it tomorrow" moments. The event will be held at the GMHBA Stadium in Geelong, starting at 6 pm, and it's shaping up to be a night to remember. We can’t wait to see all the students looking sharp and celebrating their incredible accomplishments. After all, it's not every day you wrap up over a decade of learning!

Year 11 to 12 Orientation

While the current Year 12s may be finishing their journey, our Year 11s are gearing up for their own adventure. The Year 12 Orientation is officially underway! Students transitioning from Year 11 to Year 12 have already started their first classes and are getting a taste of what’s to come in 2025. To make sure they’re ready for the year ahead, they’ve been given access to their new Google Classrooms and will be tackling some holiday homework over the break. It’s the perfect way to ease into the year, right?

Year 12 Leadership Camp

Looking even further ahead, Year 12 students in 2025 will kick off their senior year with the Year 12 Leadership Camp at Ballarat University in the very first week of school. It’s a chance to build connections, learn new skills, and maybe even have a bit of fun along the way. But first, they’ll need to make sure all their paperwork is in order. Students are asked to return all necessary forms, consent slips, and payments via Compass as soon as possible. If you have any questions or need assistance, Mrs. Martin in the Senior Sub School is your go-to person.

Whether you’re a current Year 12 or looking forward to next year, it’s a busy time ahead—so let’s finish strong and make the most of the final stretch!
