OLNA
The OLNA (Online Literary and Numeracy Assessment) is a test that identifies whether a student is meeting the minimum standard of literacy and numeracy needed to navigate the demands of everyday life and work in a knowledge-based economy. Meeting the OLNA requirements is also necessary for a student to graduate high school.
MMA's next OLNA Preparation Program
MMA will deliver an eight hour OLNA Preparation Program on the Christ Church Grammar School School campus in the first week of the Term 2 holidays (Monday 7 July to Thursday 10 July). These classes will prepare students who wish to sit the OLNA scheduled to commence July 28.
