CURRICULUM
A busy but successful Term 2, 2019
Time flies, they say, when you are having fun and, that is the sentiment shared by the JT community, when we look back at Term 2.
Each term, we celebrate learning in a variety of ways- faculty displays in the school foyer, faculty showcases at school assemblies and acknowledging students’ hard work and commitment to learning at these school assemblies.
In Term 2, the CAPA and TAS faculties were in focus. We also celebrated the successes of our senior students who received their Half Yearly/Progress reports. 35 HSC students were recognised for ranking First in their respective courses (till the half way mark) and the Year 11 students for getting Grade A in most of their courses.
Our Stage 4 & 5 students had a busy time with in-class tasks and exams, the success of which (along with ongoing classwork and homework) is reflected in the Semester 1 reports.
We congratulate all our students on their commitment to learning!
Term 2 also saw our Year 8 and Year 10 students attend Course Preference night with their parents to get information that will inform their subject selections for 2020. The first round of submissions (28th June) will be followed by a discerning process which will culminate in a one-on-one parent/student interview with KLA Coordinators and members of the Executive on Monday 5th August (Term 3 Week 3) from 3:30 pm-6:00 pm. This is a changed date (as some of our leaders will be unavailable on the previous date). I request parents/caregivers of our year 10 students to keep this date free.
Workshops and excursions supported the great work being done each day in classrooms, demonstrating the school’s commitment to providing a quality learning platform for all our students.
But of course, none of this would be possible without the commitment of our staff and students, the support of the parents/caregivers and the wider school community and for that, we thank each one of you.
Have a safe and blessed break.
