Electives Program
Welcome to our Electives Program for students in Years 9 and 10.
The structure and content of our 2022 Elective Program has arisen out of a strong desire to provide the greatest possible flexibility and areas of interest for students. Our program is unique; rather it exceeds customary elective programs by offering the ‘best of both worlds’ of innovation and traditional learning program options.
2022 Electives include:
Agricultural Technology
Aviation
Commerce
Design and Technology
Digital Content Creator
Drama
Electronic and Software Engineering
Languages
Music
PASS (Physical Activities and Sports Science)
Visual Arts
