Students also have access to a cafeteria, coffee shop, automatic teller, Co-Op Bookshop and other facilities not normally available in a traditio nal school but are available to our students because of the partnership.

A Great Learning Enviro nment

The College provides opportunities for students in Years 11 and 12 to gain their Higher School Certificate in co nditions that are without equal in Australia. The college has a different approach to learning and the learning environment. Succinctly, this means that students are expected to take respo nsibility for their learning in a very supportive adult environment. This approach has been very successful as students have achieved top results co nsistently in an enviro nment where they have enjoyed learning. Students are on a first name basis with their teachers, and are offered the opportunities to seek support from their mentor teachers and through the after school learning centre.

Students enjoy a refreshing learning enviro nment that encourages a work ethic and a set of values that will give them the edge for their future studies and careers. The college provides students with the widest possible curriculum choices including a range of academically challenging courses and an extensive range of vocatio nal and TAFE courses. Students are even able to access University developed courses.
