SACE Exams

All final Year 12 SACE exams will be held at the College. An email has been sent out containing the SACE exam timetable commencing in Week 4 (week beginning Monday 4th November 2024 and finishing 13th November). Students have received their official SACE slip with the times and dates of their exams. The SACE exam timetable is available on the SACE Website.

It is imperative that students attend each of their SACE exams, even if unwell. If the invigilator and/or student feels they have been disadvantaged by illness then a specific process outlined by the SACE Board needs to be followed, and a special medical appraisal must be completed by the student’s doctor. This process can only occur after the exam. A doctor’s certificate will not be sufficient evidence to present to the SACE Board.

 

SACE results will be out on Monday 16th December 2024.  Students can logon to their SACE account and access their results prior to receiving their official transcript in the mail.

Year 12 Fun Day

To celebrate coming to the end of Year 12, and prior to the beginning of SACE exams, we are having a Year 12 Fun Day. This will be held at Woodville Bowl on Friday 25th October, between 9:30am and 1pm. Students will travel on a private bus to and from the College. Further information regarding this event will be sent out closer to the day.
