Learning & Teaching at the College
Year 11 2023 Subject Selection
There are 3 significant upcoming events in the subject selection process for Yr 11 2023. Please note the following key dates:
21 June 2022: Subject Selection Market
This is an opportunity for students to engage in short lessons, to gain an understanding of the requirements of each course and to speak with specialist teachers. Students will not be able to attend every subject offered, so are encouraged to use the Subject Selection Launch Presentations to help refine the list of subjects that they may wish to find out more about. This will occur at the College during periods 1 to 4.
22 June 2022: Year 11 2023 Information Night
From 6:30pm, KLA Coordinators and specialist teachers will be available in the Champagnat Centre to answer questions regarding the subjects that they have on offer. At 7:00pm, members of the College Leadership Team will present information on patterns of study (ATAR/non-ATAR), HSC expectations and the process of selecting subjects for 2023.
23 August 2022: Subject Selection Interviews
Students and parents/guardians will meet with a KLA Coordinator or Year Coordinator who will discuss the selections students wish to make and will ensure that their pattern of study is suitable for their intended pathway beyond school. Bookings for these interviews will open towards the end of this term.
For any questions regarding the Subject Selection process or HSC pathways, please contact Ms Miller or Mrs Kripal. Mr Daniels (Careers and TAPS Coordinator) is also contactable to discuss post school pathways and Mr Clark (VET Coordinator) can be contacted to discuss EVET and SBAT options. Any inquiries about external courses (such as Language courses), can be directed to Ms Miller.
Year 7-10 Parent/Teacher/Student Interviews
Parent/Teacher/Student Interviews provide an opportunity for parents/carers and students to meet with their class teachers to review academic progress and discuss areas for growth. This conversation provides an opportunity for valuable feedback and enables parents/carers to ask questions to support students as they progress through their secondary education.
Bookings for the upcoming Year 7-10 Parent/Teacher/Student Interviews are now open via the Compass Parent Portal. The interview bookings are available over three sessions:
Monday June 27: Interviews will be held at the College in the Champagnat Centre from 4pm - 8pm.
Thursday June 30: Interviews will be held via Zoom from 4pm - 8pm.
Friday July 1: Interviews will be held via Zoom from 8:30am - 12:30pm.
Bookings will close for all sessions at 10am on the first day of interviews (Monday June 27).

If you choose to book interviews which will be held via Zoom, please refer to the 'Print Preview' screen (as per the instructions) for the Zoom code of each teacher.
