At ELTHAM College we believe<br />
in empowering our young<br />
men and women to live their<br />
passion, while discovering<br />
a love of lifelong learning.<br />
From Early Learning all the<br />
way through to the secondary<br />
years, schooling at ELTHAM College has always involved enjoyment,<br />
fun, encouragement and nurturing of the individual.<br />
<strong>Schools</strong> are constantly juggling the needs of a conventional classroom<br />
and the demands of an ever changing, connected world. At ELTHAM<br />
College we are committed to providing experiences that respond to<br />
the intellectual and personal diversity of our students, while creating<br />
spaces and opportunities for collaborative learning. Our young people<br />
are encouraged to see life as a chance for unlimited learning, while<br />
teachers have the privilege of helping to grow the hearts and minds of<br />
the next generation.<br />
At ELTHAM we aim to make sure that our young people can relate to<br />
their world, understand their effect on it and use their creativity to help<br />
shape it in positive ways. We ensure that young people are nurtured,<br />
can aim high in life, continue learning, form successful relationships,<br />
juggle the demands of a challenging and complex world, achieve<br />
independence and greet opportunities with confidence.<br />
The thinking environment at ELTHAM encourages our students to<br />
undertake a journey of discovery and transformation. It’s about<br />
enhancing individual talents, unearthing hidden skills and realising<br />
potential. It’s learning from everything life has to offer and having<br />
the desire and resilience to thrive in a diverse and constantly shifting<br />
world. We see ourselves in the fortunate position to work, learn<br />
and grow with truly amazing young people, each with so much to<br />
contribute. We are focussed on their needs, for now and in the future.<br />
Ultimately schooling at ELTHAM is built on a culture that champions<br />
not only the seeking of answers, but values the importance of asking<br />
the critical questions – prizing individual expression, innovative<br />
thinking and the development of lifelong learning skills.<br />
Just some of our key approaches are listed below:<br />
Science and Mathematics<br />
Science and Mathematics form a pivotal role within ELTHAM; as<br />
such our purpose built senior science laboratories, observatory and<br />
research grade equipment encourage innovation and collaboration.<br />
Academic skills are further developed within engaging modules,<br />
where our goal is to offer cutting edge programs within the Technology,<br />
Science and Mathematics fields.<br />
Literacy<br />
Our goal is for every student not only to read and write, speak, listen<br />
and view texts but to do so with energy, vibrancy, sophistication and<br />
accuracy; to develop their critical thinking skills to the very highest<br />
level of which they are capable. We aim to inspire a love of language<br />
and a love of learning which will sustain students long after they have<br />
left school.<br />
Performing Arts<br />
Music and drama form the soul of ELTHAM. Music is offered at Year<br />
12, with both VCE academic music and VET music in performance<br />
and sound. Our drama program offers exceptional opportunities that<br />
challenge and motivate.<br />
Located in an extraordinary environment students experience an<br />
engaging, rigorous, world ready curriculum while being supported<br />
with warmth care and respect.<br />
At ELTHAM College we inspire!<br />
