ISAT TESTING
The week has finally come for ISAT testing. We have worked very hard all year preparing your child for these big tests. Please make sure your child gets a good night of sleep and eats a healthy breakfast so they are ready for their test. It is also important that your child arrives to school on time because we are beginning a test first thing every day.
