Our Sporting Academies were very busy yesterday! Basketball had their first session, boys AFL scored a win in their first game, girls soccer had a draw and boys soccer unfortunately came up short.
We still have places available in Boys AFL and Girls Soccer. So any of our students not yet involved are welcome to sign up and join in on the fun.
If your child would still like to participate in an Academy this term, registrations are open until Friday 17 May via Qkr.
On Tuesday, our two Aveley SC teams competed in the Netball High School Cup. The carnival consisted of a round robin tournament against other high schools in the Northern Metro area, some of which are netball specialist schools. Team 1 were undefeated and Team 2 won three of their games and lost two including a close game by one goal.
The competition also gave us the opportunity to showcase our new netball uniforms!
We are extremely proud of our students who participated in this highly competitive carnival. The girls demonstrated wonderful sportsmanship and effort throughout the day.
Congratulations girls on a fantastic day and results!
Introducing Cameron Pilapil who is joining us as a specialist Digital Technologies teacher. He has been doing some exciting work with students in the Pilbara and we look forward to him joining our team.
Hi, my name is Cameron Pilapil and I am the new Digital Technologies teacher at Aveley Secondary College. I have just moved from teaching in a remote school of WA where I have gained a substantial amount of teaching experience in Technologies and Science. I have always pushed myself to go beyond what is expected as a teacher and I hope to bring the same mindset to Aveley. I have provided after-school tutoring, participated in robotics competitions and coordinated STEM workshops throughout my teaching career. At Aveley, I will work to provide opportunities for all students to thrive in their education and enjoy the learning experience. I look forward to meeting all the staff, students and parents of the Aveley Secondary College community.

Term 1 progress reports were emailed today. These are a good way of indicating how well you child has transitioned into their new school year and another form of communication to let you know how your child is progressing. It is wonderful to see so many students doing well in their studies and experiencing a range of curriculum experiences.
If a teacher has requested an interview you can choose to book a session at our parent teacher afternoon on Wednesday 10th April from 3-5pm. Bookings can be made through www.schoolinterviews.com.auusing the event code 7x3at. As interview times are limited we ask that parents prioritise those teachers who have made interview requests for making bookings.
If you are unable to attend the afternoon, we recommend communicating through email or requesting a return phone call.
There will be a lengthier parent teacher evening at the end of next term.
Our Year 7 students will be sitting their NAPLAN tests online next term from 14 – 24th May. Flyers were given out and emailed early March. The tests will be scheduled at the beginning of the testing window, followed by catch up tests for absent students. We encourage all students to attend and do their best. NAPLAN results are a great measure of student progress over time.
