Unfortunately, due to my upcoming teaching prac, Rachel's Tutoring will not be holding sessions from June 18th. Although, I have every intention of continuing in Term 4.

I would just like to thank all my year 9 students for making today's NAPLAN Workshop a success! Due to the changes to the HSC this was the first year Rachel's Tutoring held a workshop targeting writing and numeracy skills. Not only were the sessions productive and informative, but I believe they helped ease some anxieties about the upcoming tests. Today just reminded me how amazing the children I teach are and how much we can all learn from each other. I would also like to give a special mention to Tina for helping prepare for the day. Looking forward to seeing the results!

With school holidays underway, I would just like to wish all my students and their families a very Happy Easter. I hope you all enjoy the break and stay safe, whether at home or far away. When we return, years 3, 5, 7 and 9 will sit NAPLAN and preparation for half yearly exams will begin. So rest up, stay safe and prepare for term 2!

Good luck to all students in the midst of, or about to start, their year 12 half-yearly exams! Using simple techniques like the "Poker" plan can help you revise quickly and gain maximum results.

You know how it smells outside after it rains? There's a word for that! Petrichor is the distinct scent of rain in the air. Or, to be more precise, it’s the name of an oil that’s released from the earth into the air before rain begins to fall. Who knew?
