Year 11

Year 11 students participate in Camp Jindabyne, a week-long experience early in Term 1 which gives the girls the opportunity to bond as a senior year group. The camp also constitutes part of the Department of Education's compulsory 25 hour Crossroads Course. New students to the school are also able to develop new friendships. The camp further develops students' skills of confidence and communication, and activities are designed to offer them a range of new experiences.

Other programs for Year 11 are the Driver Education Program and the Healthy Lifestyle Program, in which the students have an opportunity to discuss relevant lifestyle and health issues with registered GPs in a structured, small group program. 

The Building Strength program is offered to all Year 11 students and gives them the chance to understand themselves as learners and to develop effective study skills. The program is workshop-based and is run fortnightly during Semester 1.
