A Window Into Learning At Columba
SCHOOL TV
SchoolTV Launch
Columba Catholic Primary School is now offering a valuable resource called SchoolTV to parents.
During the School year we will publish various topics for you to access.
The topics covered may be pertinent to your immediate situation, or the resource may be useful for you at a later date. We hope that you find SchoolTV to be informative and a useful source of current well-researched information.
INTRODUCTION TO SCHOOL TV
ANZAC DAY
Members of our school community represented Columba at the Bunyip Community ANZAC day commemoration. Students across the school learned about this very important day for our nation.
NAPLAN ONLINE
The National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) will take place online this year between Tuesday 10th May and Friday 20th May 2022.
Students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9 participate in the annual NAPLAN tests in reading, writing, conventions of language (spelling, grammar, and punctuation) and numeracy.
The assessment provides parents and schools with an understanding of how individual students are performing at the time of the tests.
NAPLAN is just one aspect of a school’s assessment and reporting process – it does not replace ongoing assessments made by teachers about student performance.
NAPLAN also provides schools, education authorities and governments with information about how education programs are working and whether young Australians are achieving important educational outcomes in literacy and numeracy.
NAPLAN assesses literacy and numeracy skills that students are learning through their regular school curriculum. All government and non-government education authorities have contributed to the development of NAPLAN materials. Students are assessed on the same literacy and numeracy curriculum content, regardless of whether they complete the tests online or on paper. Results for both formats can be reported on the same NAPLAN assessment scale.
All students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9 are expected to participate in the annual NAPLAN assessment. Students with a disability may qualify for adjustments that reflect the support normally provided for classroom assessments. You should discuss the use of any adjustments for your child with your child’s teacher.
If a child is absent, schools may arrange for individual students to complete missed tests at another time during the school’s test schedule but not outside of it.
