What is iXtend?

 

iXtend is a program unique to Denison College and is targeted specifically to our high potential and gifted students. The program runs in Years 7 and 8 at both Bathurst and Kelso High Campuses and offers a differentiated curriculum within core classes. Students are offered additional enrichment within the classroom day to day, across campus through targeted KLA extension, and externally through participation in such opportunities as the Da Vinci Decathlon, Write a Book in a Day and the Game Changer Challenge. 

 

Who should apply?

 

Our iXtend classes at each campus cater for those students who show exceptional ability in the intellectual and creative domains, as well as those who have the self-motivation and capacity for high level individual work and group project work.
