School Terms
There are three academic terms (known as Quarters) in the year,
- The Oration Quarter (OQ), from early September to mid December.
- The Long Quarter (LQ), from mid January to late March. Therefore, it traditionally had the distinction of being the shortest third of the school year, despite its name.
- The Cricket Quarter (CQ), from late April to late June or early July.
