Day 1 commencement

New Parents Dinner

First time parents at Mount Scopus in any year level will be invited to our New Parents Dinner scheduled to be held just prior to school commencing. In 2019, this will be held on the evening of Wednesday 30 January . This allows the opportunity to meet some of the College Leadership Team, as well as other new parents.

Parent communication

Your child’s teachers will contact you when your child commences. Teachers are available to answer any queries about your child throughout the year and are best contacted by email or via a phone call or message.

Students will receive a comprehensive academic report in Terms 2 and 4, and a monitoring report, which has marks rather than comments at the end of Term 1. The parent / teacher meetings are held in Terms 1 and 3.

An information evening is held during Term 1 regarding the MYP (Middle Years Programme) which is the framework of learning and assessment for Years 7 to 10.
