Stepping Into A New Season
At the start of Senior School our students step into a new learning adventure and bravely decide how best to use the gifts and talents that God has given them.
Our Senior School curriculum offers rigour, innovation and flexibility that enables our graduates to develop their full academic, creative, personal, physical, moral and spiritual potential.
Learning Journeys
We provide students with four distinct ‘Learning Journeys’ to choose from.
These journeys allow students to explore and develop their interests and talents, and to prepare for their SACE journey and beyond.
We want to partner with parents in choosing the right path for their child as they enter their senior years. We believe each student is uniquely blessed and will work with you to help select the path that makes sense for them.
Subject Selection
We understand that every student has unique interests and strengths. That’s why we offer a wide range of subjects for selection in our Senior School curriculum.
Our aim is to cater to each individual student’s needs, providing them with the opportunity to pursue their passions and achieve their goals. In addition to the diversity of subjects, we strive to maintain a sense of community and belonging at our school. Our students are encouraged to build connections with others and develop relationships with their teachers.
We believe that a safe and supportive environment where students feel empowered to ask questions is essential for our students’ growth and development, both academically and personally.

Leading the way in SACE
We are proud to be a leading school in the SACE Pilot Program to revitalise the research project and personal learning plan. This has led to the implementation of the newly formed Exploring Identities and Futures (EIF) and Activating Identities and Futures (AIF).
EIF focuses on exploring identities and building connections with others, while AIF allows students to take control of their learning and pursue an area of interest.
These new subjects aim to help students discover their strengths and see that the purpose and value of learning is much more than knowledge and grades
Students will explore identity, develop agency, and pursue their interests. They will gain the confidence and skills they need to pursue their passions and achieve their goals.
Vocational Education and Training
Vocational Education and Training (VET) is a valuable option for Senior School students who are certain about their chosen career path. VET allows students to acquire practical skills and expertise in a particular trade or occupation, preparing them for the workforce directly after graduation.
Full details about the flexibility of VET in the SACE are available on the SACE website.
