Summative assessments feed into the students’ grades, whereas formative assessments do not. It is important for your child to complete the formative assessment when it is due to allow time for your teacher to best support student progress before the summative assessment. Formative assessments allow teachers to ascertain how well students have grasped the knowledge and skills that are needed in order to successfully complete their summative assessments.

P-6 Unit Workbooks that are distributed each term are intended to be written in and are for one-time use. These do not need to be returned.

All other Faith Resources (novels, science kits, musical instruments, math counters, textbooks, etc.) are borrowed items and must be returned at the end of the term, semester or school year. You can return resources in the following ways:

• Post resources to Faith’s PO Box: PO Box 105, Kingston, QLD 4114
• Give resources to Faith staff at a Regional Workshop or Event
• Hand resources to your teacher at your next home visit
• Email/chat with your teacher to make arrangements that suit your family

In Year 9, students select their elective subjects. These subjects are in addition to the core subjects of English, Mathematics, Science, History and HPE.

In Year 10, students study three core subjects (English, Science and Mathematics 1) and can then choose a minimum of two electives. These can include VET courses, created by Faith’s RTO.

In Year 11-12, students have a fully customisable course load. To select courses for Years 11-12, students work with Faith’s Future Pathways Officer. Email future.pathways@faith.qld.edu.au for more information.

All Booklists can be found on our Resources Library page.

No, if your student is in Prep to Year 6, you will receive a pack of printed workbooks by default, as it is a key component of learning in Primary. This is included in School fees and will be sent by our Resource Team to the postal address on file (no opt-in necessary).

Initial student timetables will aim to be released to the Learning@Faith dashboard on Friday, 19 January. Please note that timetables are subject to change after the first day of School, and may continue to be updated.
