senior school

Sarah Meads

Senior School Leader

Senior School students, particularly Years 11 & 12, have begun the year with a very clear focus on achieving their best outcomes in VCAL, VET and/or VCE. It is great to see the enthusiasm and positive attitude, and I know it will be a great asset for all the students over the coming year.

BSC  staff aim to provide the best possible support to all students to reach their goals.  In addition to scheduled classes, the CCP program offers English, Maths, Art Folio, Language and Performing Arts and other clubs so that senior students can use the opportunity to extend and hone their skills, study together or  receive extra help whenever required. Alongside this, COGS sessions will provide students with helpful strategies for time management and study habits, life skills, health and wellbeing, as well as to help guide them with planning for life beyond Brunswick.

Additionally,  students have access to careers guidance counselling with Veronika Khatountseva, with whom they can address any concerns about their careers pathways. Also, students are always welcome to discuss any issues with their Year Level Coordinator, teachers and myself. 

While the senior school years can be busy, daunting and demanding,  it is also a time when students mature, life-long memories are made and friendships are firmly established.  We know that if staff, parents and students work together, support and help each other,  it will be a wonderfully exciting  and rewarding experience for us all.

My last year of high school! I have started the year as a normal year - but I am working harder and will try not to get stressed.

I am approaching Year 12 as just another year of school - but the expectations feel so much higher.

Year 11

I have settled in really well this year and I am trying to experience as much as I can at BSC before starting Year 12 next year.

My advice is that senior students manage their part-time work schedule around their studies so that you can fit everything in!

Year 12

I am resolved to keep up to date with all my subjects so that I don't get bogged down or stressed out.

The best way to tackle Year 12 is to try your best and not to give up.  Be positive!
