Year 7 · Term 3 · my plan
Do my best work with time to spare, then head off on holidays with a clear head and nothing hanging over me.
Finish everything I make and hand in – my folios, the brochure, the science video – by Thursday 3 September, while there's still plenty of time to do it well. That turns my last week into an easy run to the holidays instead of a pile-up, and I head off proud of my work.

Plus one short one: HPE Health & Fitness Report – start Wk4B, hand in Wk5A (Thu 13 Aug). Small, so it isn't in the grid.
✎ Moved out: HPE Food for Sport Report has been pushed to Term 4 (confirmed with the teacher), so there's nothing to do on it this term. · Waiting on: the Humanities brochure brief hasn't been shared yet, so those steps firm up once it arrives. · Confirm the blue boxes: tick any project that's also worked on in class, so home time goes on the rest.
Planning week. Set up the Art diary; read the Science & Design Tech briefs. Light.
Two quick tests + hand in the HPE Health report (Thu 13). Nudge each project one step.
Science draft is the big effort. Cooking practical in class. Tick the others forward.
Japanese exam + Humanities draft + Design checkpoint. Start the science video.
Maths exam, then finish & hand in everything by Thu 3 Sept.
Nothing left to sit – a victory lap to the holidays. Fly out Fri 11. ✈️
