Trimester 1 Oral Assessment Week
During this week, students will book individual or small group meetings with their teacher to assess their learning. Different classes assess differently, but all of them include some oral component. The best way to prove you have understood something is to teach it back in your own words, so this is your chance to show us what you've learned this term.
