As the second Extended Learning Project (ELP) continues, it has been great to see the students engaging in a variety of learning experiences both on and off campus. Each ELP aims to provide students with the chance to explore a specific area of interest in an in-depth way, while also developing personal skills, independence and building relationships with peers and teachers.

Please note that the final week for ELP 2 is Wednesday 10 June. On Wednesday 17 June, all students will attend Bundoora Campus for Year 9 Examinations. Room changes for Preston students will be reflected on SIMON. Students will be allocated to a study hall on this day when not sitting an examination.
Following examinations, students will begin their four Learning-4-Life blocks on Wednesday 24 June.
As part of our Year 9 ExCEL program, all students will participate in a series of personal development units. Each Learning-4-Life unit runs for two weeks and focus on life skills that are aimed to help prepare our students for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Some units also involve students attending excursions, with details being communicated in the usual way via PAM. L4L units and room allocations will be emailed to students by Monday 15 June. Please note that your child may be based at Preston Campus for some units (denoted by room numbers that begin with R or K). It is important that your child checks their timetable to ensure they attend the correct campus on these dates.
