The Senior School curriculum is based on the Board of Studies syllabus. The College is registered and accredited with the Board of Studies for the School Certificate (SC) and Higher School Certificate (HSC). We are committed to the achievement of quality learning outcomes.
We run programs for all levels of academic need whether they are gifted and talented to those who need learning support to achieve in the classroom. We have specialist staff in both these areas. We have a full time trained College Counsellor – Mrs Petersen who is able to work with individual students who need support. Mrs Petersen is also available to provide support to parents.
The values we teach are Christ centred and our Christian beliefs and attitudes come through every day in all that we teach.
