School from the inside

By Kath Gannaway
AN INFORMATION evening on Thursday, 5 May, will give parents and prospective students an opportunity to learn more about what Healesville High School has to offer.
The school provides a broad curriculum and co-curricular programs which value excellence and encourage all students to achieve their best.
“Through this approach we meet the diverse needs of our students, who enter their chosen learning pathway and are supported to achieve their goals,” principal George Perini said.
Mr Perini said the school had an outstanding record of placing students into their chosen career paths which include tertiary courses, TAFE programs, apprenticeships and employment.
The school has produced a comprehensive prospectus which is available to parents covering all year levels from establishing relationships in Year 7 to preparing for future success in Years 11 and 12.
Healesville High School is also currently undergoing a dramatic rebuilding program and with an expenditure of $15 million students by 2013 will have access to new or redesigned state of the art facilities covering almost every aspect of the school’s operations from new learning and study centres to sporting facilities, a performing arts centre, dine-in cafeteria, well-being and careers centre, arts and technology wing … and more.
The information evening will be held in the Healesville High School Community Centre starting at 7pm.
