My how time flies. We are already in Week 3 of Semester 2. This is the first opportunity I have had to publicly congratulate all of our Academic Colours (Year 7-12) and Academic Merit and Excellence (Year 4-6) recipients for Semester 1. I also want to recognise the hard work of our girls who achieved an Academic Improvement Certificate. To qualify for Full Colours or Academic Excellence, students must have a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 13 or better. This equates to an average grade in the A range. To qualify for Half Colours or Academic Merit, students need to have a GPA of greater than 12. To attain an Academic Improvement certificate, a student needs to have improved their GPA by at least one full point. These awards recognise not only the academic ability of our girls, but also consistent hard work over a full semester in multiple subjects. At such times of recognition, it is also important to acknowledge the disappointment that some girls will be feeling for having missed out. My advice is for girls to use this feeling of disappointment to encourage themselves to focus on their studies and strive for Semester 2 Colours or Academic Improvement. Students are in the process of using Semester 1 data to set Academic Goals for the rest of the term. We believe that explicitly setting achievable academic goals for improvement is one of the reasons that we have had so many girls reach these high levels of achievement. Congratulations to all!
