Principal's Message
We have now been provided with data that enables us to compare our NAPLAN results against the Tasmanian and Australian results.
Newsletter Vol 22 shared our outstanding data in comparison to Similar Schools. I am now able to share that our Year 3 and Year 5 students are equal to or have outperformed the Tasmanian results in many areas. Our Year 5 students have outperformed Australian mean score data in Spelling!
