The Secondary School Âé¶¹Éç are encouraged to participate in the inter school debating competitions conducted by Debaters Association of Victoria (DAV). The competition gives the Âé¶¹Éç an open opportunity to form teams, work together and learn team spirit. They prepare their speeches on current issues in the society, enabling them to improve and display their public speaking skills as well as their literacy skills. Intra- and inter-school competitions give Âé¶¹Éç an opportunity to enhance their skills and excel in areas beyond academia. EPIC Âé¶¹Éç get a platform to interact with Âé¶¹Éç from different schools and exchange their ideas and views on the world they live in. Years 7 and 8 Âé¶¹Éç are encouraged to attend the Junior Secondary Program (JSP) and are given training prior to taking part in the Junior Competition.
Building Bridges is an inter faith program that is designed especially for Year 10 and Year 11 Âé¶¹Éç. This program involves meeting with a group of Year 10 and 11 Âé¶¹Éç from predominately Christian, Jewish & Islamic schools on various occasions throughout the year. This program focuses on instilling faith and making a connection through interfaith dialogue. This helps Secondary Âé¶¹Éç of different faiths, religions, cultures and values in Year 10 and 11 to develop trust and friendship through dialogue and sharing personal experiences. Personal experiences of life play a decisive role in shaping an individual. Such practice builds respect for each other’s differences and commonalities. These are important qualities of our country into the future.
The Secondary School Âé¶¹Éç undergo workshops and training in leadership programs. The school runs SRC (School Representative Council) to be able to prepare the Âé¶¹Éç to become future independent leaders in analysing pros and cons of situations in school and extend their skills in decision making.
Our mission is to provide a positive
learning environment where staff and Âé¶¹Éç work cooperatively to achieve their best, developing a commitment to continuous learning. The core values of the school are learning, achievement, respect, commitment and fairness.
 We acknowledge the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation as the traditional custodians of the land we pray, teach, and learn on, and pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
