NAPLAN 2015

NAPLAN

Students in Year 3 and Year 5 will sit the NAPLAN test next week.

The National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN) is an annual assessment for students in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9.

The assessments are undertaken nationwide, every year, in the second full week in May. Above you can see the NAPLAN timetable for students in Year 3 and Year 5.

NAPLAN is made up of tests in the four areas of: reading, writing, language conventions (spelling, grammar and punctuation) and numeracy.

Please make sure your child is at school between 8:30am and 8:50 am on these days if they are sitting for the NAPLAN test. They will also need to bring a rubber and a sharpener. Pencils will be provided.  

If you wish to know more about the NAPLAN tests you can visit the ACARA website.
