Wishing all the Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 students well for their NAPLAN tests this week!

There are no short cuts in this game... like learning to play an instrument. The mastery comes from the practice: trying, stumbling and trying again. And then doing that again and again. 🤓😎🤙

With three weeks to go before the national literacy and numeracy tests get underway for students in Years 3, 5, 7, & 9, you can try a short demonstration of each test on this website.
