Year 3 and 5 NAPLAN Report

The 2025 Student NAPLAN Report for your child will be sent home in a yellow envelope with your child today. This report reflects your child’s results from participating in the national assessment program that allows national, school and student comparisons of performances. The different components of this report show your child’s performance in each of the five areas of Literacy and Numeracy completed when these tests were administered online in March. These results need to be considered along with other results provided by the school, including semester reports, school data and Learning Conference information.

Teachers will take some time to look over class and student data. If further explanation is required, you are welcome to make an appointment with your child’s teacher to discuss this report if you have any questions or concerns or alternatively book a Learning Conference in early Term 4. The data from these assessments, along with school data, assists the school and teachers in monitoring each child’s performance and identifying additional opportunities to assist in maximising student learning.

Term 3 Novel Studies Year 2-6

This term, students in Years 2–6 are diving into Novel Studies as part of our reading and comprehension focus. Each year level will explore a carefully selected novel designed to engage students and build their skills in reading fluency, comprehension, and rich vocabulary discussions.

Here’s what each year level is reading:

  • Year 2George’s Marvellous Medicine by Roald Dahl
  • Year 3The Twits by Roald Dahl
  • Year 4The Wild Robot by Peter Brown
  • Year 5The Grandest Bookshop in the World by Amelia Mellor
  • Year 6Can You See Me? by Libby Scott and Rebecca Westcott

Students are already into their first week of reading and engaging with these texts through class discussion, reflection, and comprehension tasks. This is a great opportunity to ask your child about their book; it could be a wonderful conversation starter at home this week!

We’re looking forward to seeing students grow as confident, thoughtful readers across the term.

Sarah.
