Exam week - final reminders

Dear Parents and Students

First of all, I wish you great success in your first formal examination period at the Senior School next week. I have been impressed by how you have prepared and conducted yourselves in the lead up to this important time of year.

Some reminders:

Please bring the correct revision materials you need each day. Think about what you are revising for - whether it is examinations later that day or examinations the next day and pack your bag accordingly.

In some examinations it is permissable to read at the end of the test should you finish early. Please bring a reading book each day and listen carefully to instructions for each exam to find out if you should bring this in with you.

Lessons next week are set aside for revision, use this time wisely.

Also, remember what we have spoken about in terms of preparation: a good night's sleep, no late night 'cramming', eating breakfast and making sure you are here on time and prepared is as important as anything else.

Should you be late or absent, please let us know at your earliest convenience and attempts will be made to allow you take the exam on your return.

Finally, stay relaxed and calm. You have already proven yourselves as a confident and mature year group. You simply need to apply yourself in the same way you have done all year and you will continue to make us all very proud of you no matter what.

I have every faith in you all.

Have a great weekend.

Mr O'Dowd
