Welcome back Year 12 students, parents and carers to what will hopefully be the most rewarding year of your student’s school life.
We have already seen excellent community spirit exhibited by our Year 12 elected leaders but each and every Year 12 student is a leader of students at ISHS.
It is important to start the school year, as well as each school day, on the right foot. It is essential that students attend Connect and Assembly in order to be an active participant of our Year 12 community and to stay informed via student notices.
More than ever before, students have the ability to remain up to date with events at school and tasks required of them through internet applications such as Daily Notices and eDiary, both of which are accessible through the Student Portal.
Please encourage your student to be punctual; each student should aim to be at school each day by 8.30am at the latest. Year 12 Level Assemblies are held every Wednesday morning in the Hall commencing by 8.45am; Connect classes will take place in the relevant rooms on all other mornings commencing at 8.50am.
