学校介绍

  Golden Grove High School is a comprehensive public secondary school enrolling students from Year 8 to Year 12

  The school is unique in South Australia because it is co-located with Gleeson College and Pedare Christian College. A common line timetable allows students to access subjects at the other two schools on campus. The ability to combine small groups of students into viable classes benefits each campus school and offers an exceptionally wide curriculum choice to our students, within world-class facilities. This occurs in the Senior School, particularly Year 12.

  Golden Grove High School is recognised as a “Centre of Excellence in the Arts” and offers a wellestablished Special Entry Dance program at Years 8, 9 and 10. Our state-of-the-art Multi-Arts Centre provides students with an outstanding venue for performance and celebration.

  High academic achievement is a priority and Higher Order Thinking Skills and the Habits of Mind are explicitly taught in all Year 8 and 9 subjects.

  A comprehensive curriculum embracing all eight areas of study as defined by the South AustralianCurriculum Standards and Accountability Framework is available to students from Years 8 to 10. The principles of middle schooling guide all decision-making processes and curriculum development in Years 8, 9 and Semester one of Year 10. Class sizes in Year 8 average 23 and two teachers teach a Home Group for nearly 50% of the curriculum, providing opportunity for quality relationships to develop and hence improved student learning. Year 10 is seen as a transition year with Semester one connecting more with the middle schooling philosophy and Semester two focusing more on SACE / senior schooling principles. (see Middle and Senior School Charters under the relevant section of this course book).

  To assist students to connect school study with post-school study and career possibilities this course book has a section devoted to career pathways. These pathways act as a broad guide and allow students to select groups of subjects with a range of associated careers in mind.

  While it is the school’s intention to provide the senior school subjects described in this booklet in 2012, our ability to do so will depend upon sufficient numbers of students electing to study particular subjects, and the availability of staff and facilities. Changing circumstances may force alterations to our proposed offerings.

  Please note there are several Stage 1 and 2 subjects on offer that require an application process for selection. Students are advised that a purple “Subject Application Form” must be completed for the subjects listed below before the start of the subject counselling process. These forms are available from C Block Reception area. Stage 1 – Child Studies Cert II, Digital Multi-Media, Hospitality Cert I,Music Technology, Peer Support, NEVO / VET, Stage 2 – NEVO / VET.

  Some courses may attract additional costs for materials, excursions, camps, transport, etc.Information on additional costs can be found under the heading “Advice to Students” with each course descriptor.
