The curriculum is organised according to the eight learning areas and all course development is in line with the VELS Framework. Students in Years 7 study subjects from each learning area. Years 8, 9 and 10 are grouped together as the Middle School and students can design their own course of study within guidelines to ensure a balanced program. A comprehensive range of VCE studies provides real pathways to post secondary opportunities.
Our timetable runs on 6 periods per day of 49 minutes each. Once per week we have a Study Skills session of 30 minutes and periods are shortened accordingly. Year 11 and 12 students have a "Study Day" each week, currently on a Wednesday.
