Senior Years Report

Welcome to VCE 2026
As we begin a new school year, we warmly welcome all of our Year 11 and 12 students and families to Senior School. The commencement of VCE is an exciting and important milestone — a year of growth, challenge and opportunity.
We look forward to partnering with you to ensure every student feels supported, focused and confident as they progress through their VCE journey.
A positive and organised start sets the tone for the year ahead. We encourage students to establish strong routines early, communicate openly with teachers, and seek support whenever needed. Together, we can make 2026 a successful and rewarding year.

Homework Club – Senior School Support
We are pleased to offer Homework Club for our Senior School students.
Every Tuesday 3:10pm onwards, Location: IMPACT (C7 space)
Homework Club is staffed by both Macleod College teachers and La Trobe University students, providing additional academic support across VCE subjects. This is a fantastic opportunity for students to:
Receive help with coursework and SAC preparation
Develop study routines and organisation skills
Work collaboratively in a supported environment
Food is provided, making it an inviting and productive space after school.
We strongly encourage students to take advantage of this valuable support opportunity.
Student Reminder – Signing In and Out
A reminder to all Senior School students:
If arriving after 9.00am, students must sign in at Reception using their student card.
If leaving campus before 3.10pm, students must sign out at Reception using their student card.
This is an important safety requirement and ensures accurate attendance records.
We are excited for the year ahead and look forward to working closely with our VCE families throughout 2026.
