Course Selections

Yrs 7 & 8

Much of the curriculum at Yrs 7 & 8 is prescribed in order to provide students with a sound general curriculum knowledge. Students are offered some choice in when they undertake Technology studies and some aspects of the Sport program.

LOTE students choose to do either Indonesian or French. Students with literacy issues are offered additional literacy teaching instead of undertaking LOTE.

Yrs 9 &10

In Years 9 and 10 an Elective System operates for the 30 x50 minute period curriculum. Students select 7 electives which are each allocated 4 periods. The remaining two periods are allocated to Sport in Yr 9 and Sport and Pathways in Yr 10.

English and Maths are compulsory subjects. All other subjects are electives.

Students must complete a minimum of 1 semester in each KLA in each year.

The college offers a comprehensive range of electives in each KLA and a range of classes that offer students the opportunity to work with community groups.

VCE offerings are also made in Literature, General Maths and Biology. This year only Literature and Biology are running due to student choice. Student choice determines which subjects will be offered.

Course Selection Booklets are updated and printed in Term 3.

A Subject Fair and Course Selection days, to explain courses to students and parents and to provide assistance with selections, are held late Term 3 and early Term 4.
