Senior Years
The Senior School targets the specific needs of students through relationship building and quality course-counselling.
Students will be adequately prepared for life outside of school with any ambition they wish to pursue. Students are mentored and guided through subject-selection to determine the best suited subjects for their career path.
Through tailored support and emotional growth, students are guided through the transitional period from Middle to Senior School. They then build the skills and attributes that are needed to thriving members of the community and beyond.
