PROGRAMS
ENGLISH AS AN ADDITIONAL DIALECT (EALD)
The English ATAR course focuses on developing students’ analytical, creative, critical thinking & communication skills in all language modes.
The English ATAR course encourages students to critically engage with texts from their contemporary world, the past, and from Australian and other cultures. Through close study and wide reading, viewing and listening, students develop the ability to analyse and evaluate the purpose, stylistic qualities and conventions of texts and to enjoy creating imaginative, interpretive, persuasive and analytical responses in a range of written, oral, multimodal and digital forms.


CHEMISTRY
The Chemistry ATAR course develops students' understanding of the key chemical concepts.
Models of structure, bonding, and chemical change, including the role of chemical, electrical and thermal energy. Students learn how models of structure and bonding enable chemists to predict properties and reactions and to adapt these for particular purposes.
PHYSICS
The Physics ATAR course uses qualitative and quantitative models and theories based on physical laws to visualise, explain and predict physical phenomena.
Models, laws and theories are developed from, and their predictions are tested by, making observations and quantitative measurements. In this course, students gather, analyse and interpret primary and secondary data to investigate a range of phenomena and technologies using some of the most important models, laws and theories of physics, including the kinetic particle model, the atomic model, electromagnetic theory, and the laws of classical mechanics.


MATHEMATICS METHODS
Mathematics Methods is an ATAR course which focuses on the use of calculus and statistical analysis.
The study of calculus provides a basis for understanding rates of change in the physical world, and includes the use of functions, their derivatives and integrals, in modelling physical processes. The study of statistics develops students’ ability to describe and analyse phenomena that involve uncertainty and variation.
BIOLOGY
A unique appreciation of life and a better understanding of the living world are gained through studying the Biology ATAR course.
