Enrichment Program 2024
In 2024, we are excited to introduce a new program to all students at Northcote High School. Enrichments will run either weekly (Middle School) or fortnightly (Junior and Senior School) offering our students a wide variety of courses to enrich their learning.
This program is designed to allow flexibility and target student individual learning needs or interests. Students will participate in 5-lesson cycles of Enrichments within each area of Academic, Community, Interest or Capability. Some enrichments will be student choice and others will be school allocated depending on the needs of the individual student or cohort.
The overall goal of all courses within the Enrichment Program is to encourage our students to embrace the joy of learning. Whether that be via targeted academic intervention/extension to support within Academic subject areas or giving students time to experience new Hobby/Interest areas, we are excited for the opportunities this program will allow to encourage and enhance learning growth.
Below you will see the Enrichments offered at each Sub-school.
We look forward to updating you further as the Enrichments Program develops and grows!
