Examination Period
Please note that Year 11 (Unit 1/2) examinations mirror the VCAA examinations in both content and duration. Any Year 10 student undertaking a Unit 1/2 subject must attend their Unit 1/2 examination as scheduled, even if it overlaps with their Year 10 timetable.
Year 12 trial exams ran smoothly and the results are now available via ÃØÉ«´«Ã½ Central. Thank you to our students for their dedication and adherence to the guidelines. These exams serve as a valuable learning opportunity and students are encouraged to review them carefully, focusing on areas for improvement or seeking clarification where needed. A debt of gratitude to the Year 12 teachers for their unwavering effort in marking the trial exams and the numerous practice papers submitted by students.
Parents of Unit 3/4 students are reminded to review the final arrangements for the VCAA exams which have been posted via ÃØÉ«´«Ã½ Central News this week.
The last day of classes for Year 12 students is Friday, 18 October followed by celebratory activities on Monday, 21 October culminating in their Graduation Mass that evening.
ÃØÉ«´«Ã½ have responded enthusiastically to the Trial Exam ‘Boxes', submitting many, many trial exams and essays for feedback. They are strongly encouraged to maintain this level of commitment during the Swot Vac period. Teachers will continue to be available during regular, scheduled class times and students should attend in the timetabled rooms. Please note that students must wear their College uniform when attending onsite.
Support and encouragement from family and friends are invaluable during this period to help keep spirits high and maintain momentum. We will be thinking of you all and wish you the very best!
Please take note of the following dates when students will receive their final list of 2025 subjects and gain access to the 2025 booklist:
The VCE Headstart Program provides an opportunity for students to engage with their 2025 subjects as we begin to lay the foundation for their studies.
ÃØÉ«´«Ã½ whose accelerated study applications were deferred and wish to be reconsidered are asked to email Ms Laughlin at dlaughlin@siena.vic.edu.au to request a review. This review will be scheduled during the examination period. Deferred students will also receive an email reminder to notify Ms Laughlin if they wish to reapply.
We wish everyone a focused and satisfying remaining few months leading into a most joy filled Christmas break.
