Junior School
The fundamental aim of Lilydale High School is to foster and balance the intellectual, physical, cultural and social development of its students. The Junior School is unique in that we receive our students from a large variety of feeder schools and consider the transition of students of key importance. In catering for the successful transition of students into and through the Junior School, we are also committed to meeting the needs of students in terms of their social and emotional welfare as well as their academic performance and achievement. Many initiatives are undertaken to support their progress as part of Lilydale High School’s aims and strategic plan.
Year 7 and 8 students complete a thorough introduction to life at high school with a sound grounding in a broad range of subjects.
Curriculum
Year 7 and 8 students complete 10 subjects per semester. They study subjects from each of the eight Key Learning Areas: English, Humanities, Languages, The Arts, Physical and Sport Education (PASE), Mathematics, Science and Technology.
Students are offered a broad range of subjects which contain a range of learning situations and a variety of teaching strategies.
Year 7 and 8 students will also be involved in a Thrive period each week. During this time, students will engage in activities that are designed to meet the Lilydale High School mission: excellence in learning, resilience in life, and thriving in community.
