Wellington’s Senior School comprises of students in Years 11 and 12. The College provides a wide-ranging and comprehensive program for students who wish to progress to tertiary studies (either at university or TAFE), or commence full-time employment. With a wide range of VCE subjects on offer, the College strives to create an individualised, holistic Senior School program for our Senior students. This is done in conjunction with the Senior School Coordinators, Student Pathways team, the College Wellbeing team and classroom teachers.
Senior students have access to a modern, purpose-built learning area within the College which provides a unique home for senior students at Wellington. This precinct contains study spaces, recreational spaces, including kitchen facilities, allowing students to connect and collaborate in pursuit of achieving their best. Senior School has a unique culture with a range of traditions and rites-of-passage honouring the work of our students and recognising the College’s history in the community which pays tribute to the skills and experiences of our diverse student population.
