Year 9 2023 Subject Information Evening - Reminder

Monday 1 August 6:30pm – 7:30pm 

Our Year 8 students are about to commence a very exciting time in their education. Unlike Years 7 and 8, where the curriculum is compulsory, the Year 9 and 10 curriculum allows some flexibility for students to choose elective subjects.

Year 8 have begun their subject selection journey. It was launched in their Tuesday Pastoral lesson where each student was ssued a booklet that outlines the elective subjects on offer and the Year 9 and 10 requirements.

An information session is being organised to inform families about the Stage 5 (Year 9 and 10) curriculum on 1 August from 6:30pm. The session includes a presentation about:

  • The Stage 5 Curriculum and NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) requirements.
  • The elective subjects on offer.
  • The online Web Preferences elective subject selection process.

The presentation will be followed by an opportunity to ask questions about electives or about the selection process.

It is important that parents/carers attend this information session so they can support students in making appropriate subject choices.

Should you have any queries about the event or subject selections, please contact the Assistant Principal, Learning and Teaching, Dr Debra Bourne (DBourne@saintpatricks.nsw.edu.au; 4629 2999).
