Subject offerings
Middle Secondary Schooling includes Year 9 and 10. The focus of Middle Schooling is the development of students into the future leaders of our school, while preparing for a successful transition into Senior Schooling. Students will also develop a strong sense of belonging and responsibility through leadership activities including sporting, cultural and community events.
The Year 10 curriculum is designed to prepare all students for a smooth transition into Year 11 and 12. Students have the opportunity to participate in a range of curriculum subjects (including certificate courses) over the course of the year, as well as an extensive career education program which includes work experience and links to local industry and employment. Year 10 is the official starting point for Senior School.
In the curriculum booklets on the right hand side of this page, you will find a brief description of the subjects offered to students.
Senior Education and Training (SET) plan
During Year 10, students can choose their pathway through the senior phase of learning. To finalise their learning plans, students and their parent/guardian will need to complete a Senior Education and Training (SET) plan interview.
SET Plans aim to help students make important decisions about their future education, training and employment.
