NAPLAN 

Year 3 and 5 students will participate in NAPLAN between 15 March to 27 March. We will communicate the exact days and schedule of tests in the next couple of weeks.

What is NAPLAN?

The National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) is an annual national assessment for all students in Years 3, 5, 7, and 9, and is the only nationwide assessment that all Australian children undertake.

It’s a measure to see whether or not young Australians are developing the literacy and numeracy skills that provide the critical foundation for other learning, and for their productive and rewarding participation in the community.

If you would like your child to be withdrawn from NAPLAN testing or have any concerns about your child's participation, please contact me as soon as possible at rebekah.brown@cg.catholic.edu.au 

There is a public demonstration site that can be accessed by students and their parents. The demonstration site has tests which can be used by students to familiarise themselves with the types of questions and related functionalities available in the online NAPLAN assessment. You can access the public demonstration site at the following link:
