In 2012 we will continue to focus upon literacy and e learning as priority areas within our Annual Implementation Plan.

All Year 7, 8, 11, 12 and Year 10 students completing a VET or VCE subject will have their own personal netbook in 2012.  With today’s technological revolution upon us, it is very important that our students are well equipped to keep abreast with the latest information available at all times.

Noble Park Secondary College has been identified as a lead user of the “Ultranet” which is a new online learning system for schools.  The Ultranet is a state wide secure site that teachers, parents/guardians and students can access via the internet.  Our students and teachers will be able to collaborate in the Ultranet using on line tools such as wikis, blogs and discussion forums.  Students will be able to access and share valuable online learning content across Victoria.

As a College, we are working on a whole school approach on improving student literacy results.  In 2012 our staff will be working with Professor John Munro to further enhance our student literacy results. Staff will be working in professional learning teams within their Domains throughout 2012.

In 2012 we are pleased to be finally using our new BER Science Centre.  As a Science Specialist School, we are continuing to build upon the links from specialist organisations that will enhance the learning for our students with the latest up to date information.

In 2012 we are starting a new Year 7/8 Learning Centre which will provide a focus of collaborative learning in a flexible learning space.

We will continue to offer our Victorian Rugby Union Academy program, where we had a great success in 2011, especially with our Under 14 students winning the State Finals.  Both our junior and senior students are supported in the program with elite sport coaches from the Victorian Rugby Union as well as qualified PE staff from our College.  We are looking forward to great competitions with the Rugby as well as building student leadership skills with our primary feeder schools.

Our College continues to offer a safe and caring environment, as we are proud of the rich relationships between staff and students offering innovative and diverse curriculum for Years 7-12 on a standalone campus, which has extensive and attractive grounds.
