For more information download the information booklet from the Years 9 & 10 (Middle School) page.

Year 11 & 12 (VCE)

As students approach the completion of their secondary schooling, it is increasingly important that they appreciate the relationship between the Catholic Faith and Tradition and the society and culture in which they live. It is also important that they understand the nature of Ethics and Morality to help them find meaning in their lives. With this in mind Year 11 and Year 12 students may choose from a number of VCE Units in any sequence permitted by VCAA. These include:

Units 1: Religion in Society
Unit 2: Ethics and Morality
Unit 3 & 4: The Search for Meaning and Challenge and Response (must be taken as a sequence)

NOTES:
1. Students are required to be undertaking a study of Religious Education at all stages of their VCE.
2. Unit 3 & 4 must be taken as a sequence.
3. Year 12 students studying Units 1 or 2 complete the course in three terms.
