St. Andrews International School, Green Valley May 9, 2014 Exam Week Looms for Secondary Students As we enter term 3 it is not only our Year 11 and 13 students who are sitting exams. Each year students in Years 7 – 10 and 12 have a formal exam week during term 3. This year the exam week is being held from June 2 – 6. Students will not follow their normal timetable, rather they will sit a series of exams in most of their subjects. The exam results that the students achieve will go directly towards their term 3 report grades. Students will receive their exam timetable very soon however it’s never too early to start studying! New IB Room Triumph for St Andrews Drama Students! St Andrews Year 10 & 11 students look delighted when they received the results of their LAMDA Level 2 Acting Solo Monologue exams taken 6 weeks previously. They have every right to be with 8 Passes with Distinction and 3 Passes with Merit. The exam involved each student performing two monologues to an examiner and then answering questions on the staging of the pieces. A nerve-wracking experience for any aspiring actor but one that will prove invaluable when auditioning for that major West End / Broadway role! Annual Golf Tournament Public Holiday May 13 St Andrews annual Golf Tournament (held at the Green Valley course) is being held on Saturday May 17th from 1pm. If you would like to enter as an individual, as a 2 person team or just find out more information, please check the school website.
