The end of 2023 is quickly approaching.  Teachers and students are busily completing assessment tasks for each learning area so report cards can be written and distributed before the holidays.

Semester Two Reporting
Students are assessed and reported on in the Australian Curriculum areas of English, Mathematics, Science, HASS, Health & Physical Education, The Arts (either Visual Arts or Drama) and Technologies.  Year 5 and 6 students will also be reported on in the area of LOTE - AUSLAN.

A 5-point scale is used to report on student achievement.  The table below outlines the 5-point scale for different in year levels:


Semester 2 report cards will be either emailed or sent home to parents on Wednesday, December 6thPlease ensure the office has your up-to-date email address.

If you require two copies of your child's report card please let your child's class teacher know as soon as possible.

Are you looking for something to keep your children entertained and learning during the Christmas holidays??  

The two online learning platforms outlined below may be what you need!

1. Mareeba State School subscribes to the online mathematical program 'Matific'.  This program develops students' mathematical skills and understandings in a fun and engaging way.  Students are able to use Matific at home on either a computer or iPad.  They just use the same username and password that they use at school.  If you would like a copy of your child's Matific log in details please see your class teacher.  They will be pleased to provide this to you.  Children can access this program throughout the holidays.

2. Mareeba State School also subscribes to the online reading program 'Decodable Readers Australia'. This program allows students to practise their reading skills at a level appropriate to them.  Once again, students use their MIS ID and the password is 'reader'.

Happy holidays!
