Our Junior School (Years 7-9) provides a supportive, challenging and rigorous learning environment to make the transition from primary to secondary school a successful and engaging experience. Our technology rich classrooms, underpinned by a global education program, aim to develop all students as independent, resilient and co-operative learners.
The Senior School (Years 10-12) focuses on the educational, career and personal development of young adults. A challenging and academic learning program helps to provide pathways to post-secondary education, training and work experiences through a wide range of educational electives and VCE, VET and VCAL programs. In year 12, we also offer University entrance courses for highly competent and motivated students seeking early entrance into tertiary studies.
Our Select Entry Accelerated Learning (SEAL) program for students in Years 7-10 provides a rigorous academic program that challenges and extends students who are looking for university pathways into the future.
Our international student program provides learning experiences that assist local and international students to better understand their place within the world. By “thinking global, acting local” we seek to build strong links around the world to provide a rich and diverse set of learning experiences.
Our commitment to 21st Century learning allows all students to utilise various technologies in their learning, via the College’s Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) program, which develops digital literacy and prepares students for the 24/7 world we live in.
The creative and performing arts, along with technology provide many opportunities for students to explore and develop their creative potential. Excellent facilities and dedicated staff ensure that student expression, engagement and achievement are celebrated in drama, dance, music, technology and creative arts.
Student leadership and our extensive elective programs, including entrepreneurship, STEM, project based learning and self-development courses, provide students with valuable learning opportunities to develop student voice and agency, allowing all students to successfully prepare for the future.
