Subject Selection - Year 11 2024
The Year 11 2024 Subject Selection Information Evening will be held at the College on Wednesday 14 June at 6pm in the Alan McManus Hall. All Year 10 students are expected to attend this evening with a parent/guardian.
This evening will complement the information sessions being held in Pastoral Care lessons during Term 2. On the evening parents and students will collect a Subject Selection Information Booklet which parents and students are asked to read carefully before making subject selection. In addition to this booklet, a Subject Selection Website will also be available, containing extra information about each course offered by the College.
The Information Night will cover vital information about NESA requirements, patterns-of-study, ATAR information, types of HSC courses as well as VET and T-VET courses. In addition to this, students and parents will also be taken through the next steps in the process. It is therefore vital that families attend this night to avoid any confusion moving forward.
Subject Coordinators will be available on the night to address any questions families may have about Courses.
