In addition to providing wonderful new facilities and modern classrooms, this exciting venture strengthens and facilitates further the pastoral care of boys in the Middle Years. In Years 9 to 12, each boy is a member of one of eight vertical pastoral groups so that he can receive the best care possible from staff who come to know him well as he matures. In addition, this system provides special opportunities for leadership for the senior boys. We believe that the number of academic pathways available to our boys is quite unique. In Years 11 and 12 the number of pathways increases significantly.
Boys have a number of choices.
Although the IB has a more rigid subject structure, it is a course that is becoming increasingly popular, especially with international students and their families. This certificate is an Australian nationally accredited qualification. OR Aviation Studies and Pilot Training Aviation Studies and Pilot Training is another option available to our students in conjunction with students in nearby schools. This is undertaken at the same time as normal Year 11 and 12 studies. OR University Enhancement for Able Students Enhancement studies in a variety of disciplines are conducted in conjunction with The University of Melbourne, Monash, La Trobe and RMIT Universities to challenge our most able students.
