ICAS and AMC Competition Dates

We have had a large number of students sign-up for this years ICAS and AMC academic competitions. It’s great to see so many willing to take on this challenge and extend their learning into new areas.

Below are the dates students will be sitting each of the tests. If you have any questions, please contact Julie Vice via email at julievice@ppn.sa.edu.au

Mid-year reports

By early next week you will receive an email containing a link to view your child’s Mid Year Report. By clicking the link you will be able to access the report on the SEQTA Engage portal or app.

These reports provide insight into your child’s academic progress, along with the engagement and effort they display the classroom.

Below are a series of suggestions for having constructive conversations with your child about their report. Please remember that in alignment with the Australian National Curriculum, which we report against, a C Grade means a student is performing at the standard expected for their grade.

Please also note that your child’s report will indicate whether the classroom teacher has requested a parent interview. If this is marked as ‘Optional’ you are still able to organise to meet with the teacher.
