We ran our practise NAPLAN tests for Years 3 & 5 last week and will do more practice on Monday and Tuesday this week.
This is a great opportunity for our students to experience the test format even though results are not collated from these tests. It was also a good chance for the school to check that the systems, iPads and headphones are workng.
The real tests start on Wednesday this week, the 15th of March.
The timetable for the NAPLAN tests over the next two weeks:
- Wednesday 15th March - Writing
- Thursday 16th March - Reading
- Monday 20th March - Conventions of Language
- Tuesday 21st March - Numeracy
On each test day the Year 5 test will start at 9am and the Year 3 test will start at 11.30am. Any child who is away on the days above will be caught up on the next available test session.
Please ensure students know the importance of bringing their iPad to school fully charged on each day of the tests. If students would rather bring in their own headphones that is fine but they must work.
Children are ready for these tests and the best preparation for them is plenty of sleep and to remain calm.
