Languages (Japanese) – Mrs Melissa Amner  

Japanese Comment: (STUDENT NAME) continues to excel in Japanese and he has put in extra
time and effort to partake in multiple competitions for a second year. His strength definitely lies in
word recognition for both Hiragana and Katakana; however more emphasis needs to be placed on
vocabulary acquisition if he wishes to further his understanding and use of Japanese. He is able to
order food from a menu and calculate amounts in yen to spend and receive. Well done (STUDENT
NAME)!
Science – Ms Jo Button  
Science Comment: Term 3: Chemical Science, Term 4: Earth and Space Science.
(STUDENT NAME) is a capable Science student who, although he participates in all activities, I would like
to see him constantly apply himself in order to achieve at the level that he is capable of. He is developing
his understanding of how materials change reversibly and irreversibly through mixing, heating, cooling,
and rusting and designed and created a filtration device. (STUDENT NAME) is developing his knowledge
of Space and how sudden geological changes and extreme weather events can affect the Earth’s surface.

Class Teacher’s Comment: (STUDENT NAME) has continued to have a successful year and has
shown why many students around our school look up to him as a role model. (STUDENT NAME)
continues to produce work of a good standard but can occasionally make silly mistakes that he is
more than capable of correcting himself. (STUDENT NAME) has demonstrated an ability to listen
attentively to others and has been fantastic at working cooperatively in group situations. He can be
trusted to either lead a group or support those that are in charge. If (STUDENT NAME) can continue
to show the same skills and traits and put in the same amount of effort into high school that he has
done at Gawler Primary then he will be very successful in the future. Well done (STUDENT NAME).

 End of Year Student Reflection

This year I have learnt how Australia votes and more about civics and citizenship. I’ve
learnt how to work out a percentage of something and also learnt how to use similes
and metaphors to make my writing better and more descriptive.

This year my highlights of the year were SAPSASA soccer and rugby. Another
highlight of the year would be my Japanese competitions and getting sixth in the state.
Other highlights of the year were swimming and the end of year concert.

Next year I would like to improve on my punctuation. I can also improve on not rushing
my work and making it a better standard.
