Curriculum

As a Catholic school, we proudly proclaim our Catholic traditions and teach Religious Education using 'Source of Life' as our core curriculum.

St Anne’s College, along with all other schools in Victoria, follows the Magnify Sandhurst and Victorian Curriculums. 

What is Magnify Sandhurst?

VCE: Year 11-12

During these years of schooling, students commence and complete senior school qualifications, including Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE), Victorian Certification of Education Vocational Major (VCE Vocational Major) and Vocational Education and Training (VET) qualifications. Whilst the majority of these qualifications are completed in Years 11 and 12, opportunity is provided for some students to begin VCE and VET courses in Year 10.  

Please visit the “Our College” section on the St Anne’s College website at www.sackialla.catholic.edu.au for more information about the School of Possibilities.

Digital Technology and Information and Communication Technology 

ICT is a fundamental part of St Anne’s College. All School of Wonder and School of Innovation students have access to digital devices, along with digital cameras and other recording devices. 

The Digital Technologies curriculum enables students to become confident and creative developers of digital solutions through the application of information systems and specific ways of thinking about problem solving. Students acquire a deep knowledge and understanding of digital systems, data and information and the processes associated with creating digital solutions, so they can take up an active role in meeting current and future needs.

St Anne’s College promotes the safe use of ICT. In an increasingly technological and complex world, it is important that students develop knowledge and confidence to critically analyse and respond creatively to design challenges. Technologies can play a crucial role in enriching and transforming societies, and in the management of natural and constructed environments.

Languages 

All Foundation to Year 9 students at St Anne’s College learn Italian. Once students enter Year 10, Italian becomes a specialisation for students who wish to continue their studies in the language. 

Learning a second language has many benefits for the brain, including improved cognitive skills.

Sports

Students participate in a Physical Education program at St Anne's College and also have the opportunity to partake in community sports, such as soccer and netball, representing the St Anne's Sports Association. Other opportunities to participate in sports include the college's athletics and swimming carnivals and interschool winter and summer sports.
