NAPLAN Testing Year 3 and 5 Students
Our Year 3 and Year 5 students will be undertaking NAPLAN testing from Tuesday 10 May until Friday 20 May, 2022.
NAPLAN tests cover skills in reading, writing, spelling, grammar and punctuation, and numeracy.
Students who are unwell should not be sent to school to sit the NAPLAN test. If students are absent due to illness, they may be able to sit for a make-up NAPLAN test on Friday 20 May.
All NAPLAN tests are online for our students this year with the exception of the Year 3 Writing paper which will be completed as a pencil and paper test. Students in Year 3 will need to bring a pencil and an eraser to school on Tuesday 10 May to complete their writing test. All students are required to supply their own set of headphones (not Bluetooth). Please ensure all students have them labelled and at school by Monday 10 May.
If you would like further information about our school's NAPLAN test organisation, you are welcome to contact Mr Simpson via the school office.
