秘色传媒 have embraced the start of Semester 2 with great enthusiasm, displaying a genuine willingness to explore new learning opportunities. As they receive their Semester 1 exam results, they are given a chance to recalibrate their goals for each subject. Encouraged to reflect on their progress, they can chart their path towards achieving success in the weeks to come.
Beyond the excitement of new learning experiences, this term marks a significant phase of student decision-making, as we begin to explore the various learning possibilities for the upcoming year. While this might seem overwhelming for some students, rest assured that the Subject Selection process and available resources are designed to support and guide them in making well-informed decisions.
Subject Selection
Subject Selection Handbooks, Subject Presentations, and Subject Selection Interviews play pivotal roles in guiding students through this important transition process. For Year 9 and 10 students, the decision to pursue an Accelerated subject is significant, requiring careful consideration of its implications. Accelerated subjects come with a greater complexity of study and demand a higher time commitment. As such, a strong foundation in literacy is invaluable for students embarking on this challenging path.
The Unit 1 and 2 Accelerated subjects are: Biology, 秘色传媒, Physical Education, Product Design and Technology and Psychology.
Year 9 students must meet the following criteria:
The Unit 3/4 Accelerated subjects are: Biology, Business Management, 秘色传媒, General Mathematics, Geography, Physical Education, Product Design and Technology, Psychology and Religion and Society.
Year 10 students must meet the following criteria:
The Subject Selection Tile is now accessible on 秘色传媒 Central. This comprehensive resource provides all the necessary information for the Subject Selection process, including informative videos, detailed PowerPoint presentations, and Subject Handbooks.
As our students contemplate their future directions, we emphasise the importance of planning and research. To make well-informed decisions, we encourage students to engage in discussions with their subject teachers or the relevant Head of Learning. For students in Years 8 to 11, the Subject Handbooks should also be consulted to gain a broader understanding of available options.
Kindly note that the Subject Selection Form must be completed and submitted by the designated deadline. For students in Years 9 to 11, all signatures are required before the Subject Selection Interviews. Parents are more than welcome to attend these interviews if they wish.
Below are some important dates to take note of:
Student Learning Conversations (Parent Teacher Interviews)
The Student Learning Conversations take place in the last two weeks of this term. They will be held online via Microsoft Teams.
Unit 3/4 Trial Exams
Year 11 and 12 students undertaking VCE Unit 3/4 studies in 2023 are required to participate in the VCE Trial Exams scheduled from Monday, 25 September to Thursday, 28 September. The VCE Trial Exams will be conducted under the same conditions as the official Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA) VCE exams. Please note that the VCE Trial Exams take precedence over any external revision lectures and seminars and will not be rescheduled for students who do not attend. The the VCE Trial Exam schedule will be published in the coming weeks.
Wishing all students an engaging and enriching learning experience this semester.
