CHOOSING ELECTIVES
The following information is designed to lead students and their families through the subject selection process for elective subjects, for students moving from year 8 into year 9 in 2024.
Core Subjects
| All students are required to study the following core subjects for the entirety of the 2024 school year.
ENGLISH - 3 Lessons per week
MATHEMATICS - 3 Lessons per week
SCIENCE - 3 Lessons per week
HEALTH & PHYSICAL EDUCATION - 2 Lessons per week
|
Elective subjects
| Two elective subjects are chosen by students (pending availability) to be studied in addition to the five core subjects described above. The school endeavours to make as many combinations and subjects available to students as possible, and students are given opportunity to provide feedback on available options during a selection trial, held prior to final subject selection.
- Subjects are offered across three lines.
- Students must select one subject on each line.
- No subject can be chosen more than once.
- Health and Physical Education (HPE) must be selected on one of the three lines.
Use the lines and links provided below to explore the options available to students on each line.

OneSchool Subject Selection
| Both the subject selection trial and formal subject selection are completed by students on OneSchool. It is important that students meet the strict deadlines on all subject selections, as students may be placed in classes other than their choice, if selections are not completed according to the timelines communicated by the Deputy Principal and Home Group teachers.
