Enrichment & Extension
A warm and heartfelt welcome message from our Principal, Mr. Tim Hogan, to inspire and guide our community.
Enrichment allows students to broaden their understanding and develop skills they can apply across all areas of their learning.
The College offers students an actual academic study called Enrichment. It is offered at Year 8 and 9 and allows for greater flexibility and individual skill development across a range of content areas, often simultaneously.
Students are provided with the opportunity to work individually as well as with others. Sharing ideas, developing ‘thinking skills’, analysing information and actively participating in informed discussion are all integral components of the course.
In addition to the Cross-Curricular Enrichment subject, students are also offered the opportunity to engage with Mathematics Enrichment. This enables students to engage with sophisticated problem-solving activities within the Mathematics domain, heightening engagement and capacity in numeracy.
