Enhancement Program

Learning

From Years 7 to 10, a class of high-achieving students are selected to be a part of the Enhancement Program. This class is enriched across all Key Learning Areas, offering opportunities for advanced work and challenges. In Year 10, students in the Enhancement class can also access a VCE subject.

Additionally, our students have the chance to participate in the Victorian High-Ability Program and the Victorian Challenge and Enrichment Series. These programs provide high-ability students with opportunities to engage in both online and in-person sessions, which take place during and after school hours. The focus of these programs is to further develop students’ skills in areas such as Mathematics and English. Students are nominated to take part in these exciting opportunities.
