Learning in Year Nine
For our Year Nine students, we particularly want to contribute to their discovery of their God-given calling. We seek to prepare them for their next schooling years, where the curriculum offerings will focus on specialisation and variety.
God has given talents to us all. Stimulating, expanding, and sharing these talents for each-other’s benefit is our task. Therefore, we work hard to ensure our teaching is broad enough for our Year Nine students to explore and develop their individual skills.

Subject selection
Students will place eight Year 9 and 10 Elective Subjects in preference order.
Whilst every effort will be made to allocate students their top preferences, due to the complexity of the timetable this might not be possible. Where students cannot be allocated their top preferences, their subsequent preferences will be taken into consideration.
