We are now three weeks into the school year and what a wonderful three weeks it has been with this group of grade 10 students. They are engaged and focused and continually impress. We sat our start of the year diagnostic exam today and feedback will be issued next week. In addition to this, we will be beginning our first formative task next week. This has already been shared with the students and they can start thinking about how they would like to move forward with this task.

Tell them that they are doing well. It’s been a great start to the year.
