National Testing

Last week our Year 3 and Year 5 participated in the second National testing. This test took the place of the Basic Skills Test which was previously confined to just NSW. Our results were compared to schools right across NSW, the National Test, as the name suggests will allow results to be compared to other schools right across Australia.


As there are variances in curriculum content in other states it will be interesting to see how the NSW system, and in particular, our students compare to students the same age in other states.


Thank you to our Year 3 and Year 5 teachers for effectively administering this test and also to Mrs Gonzaga, Mr Chapman and Mrs Murphy for their overall outstanding organization.
