The middle years of schooling can be challenging for some students as they begin the physical, social, emotional and intellectual changes associated with early adolescence. Engagement and challenge are at the heart of our Middle School programme.

Our learning programme has a particular emphasis on developing understanding. The sense of achievement that our students gain from these programmes provides a strong academic foundation from which to approach their senior courses of study, confi dent that their work ethic, ability and passion for learning will equip them for a successful future.

• Students are to take English and Mathematics and 3 other subjects. They can apply to do a sixth subject. 
• Students are encouraged to achieve breadth in their subject selection by selecting as many different learning areas as possible – this ensures you do not unduly limit future study pathways by narrowing your subject choices now 
• If you are unclear about future study and career aspirations do not discard subjects studied as part of the Junior School curriculum, continue with a broad subject selection 
• Students contemplating overseas tertiary study need to understand that their Year 11 results will be considered in their application 
• Students should identify entry requirements for university degree programmes they are interested in 
• Students should select subjects that prepare them for the widest range of programmes in their field (or fields) of interest 
• Students may select a sixth subject with permission from the Careers Education and Futures Leader, Mrs Koning
