Year 10
This year level brings a whole new set of experiences for students. At the amazing Aqua Camp, students choose to undertake the SCUBA, surfing or boating streams, and all experience sailing and snorkelling as a part of their program. Many students ‘fast-track’ into VCE by studying one Year 11 subject and all work toward being more independent in their management of their studies. The Careers subject assists students to investigate their talents and interests, which they can then use to guide their choice of work experience at the end of Term 2. Resumés are developed and experience is gained in the interview process through the Job Search Day. One day spent volunteering with Melba Services helps students to appreciate the challenges of the disabled community and the dedication of the workers in this field. The formal ballroom dancing lessons in the lead-up to the Year 10 Formal Dinner is another highlight for students. Leadership opportunities are available in sport and academic faculties, and students continue to be supported pastorally by their teachers as they are encouraged to seek God in all that they do.
