Our Transition Program is designed to assist students to orientate themselves within the college and answer any questions they may have about secondary school.
All students begin each day in their House. At the start of each day, they will meet with their Home Group with other students from their Year level.
4 periods per day, 72 minute periods.
The Year 7 and 8 curriculum consists of core subjects, plus a rotation of specialist subjects that reflect the requirements of the Victorian Curriculum.
The core subjects are English, Maths, Science, Humanities, Health and Physical Education, and French with a rotation through The Arts (Performance and Visual), and Technologies (Design & Technologies and Digital Technologies). The ARC program runs across year levels for one session each week, offering students an opportunity to develop social and personal capabilities.
Students access their timetable on Compass and are able to see specialist activities such as instrumental music, excursions and additional programs, as well as assessment due dates and change of classroom details.
