Year 10 students are supported by a strong welfare team and dedicated subject teachers. Everyone studies English, Maths, Science, PD/H/PE, History, and Geography. Many are in the second year of elective subjects selected in Year 9 and are developing an in-depth understanding of these subject areas. As everyone works towards attaining their RoSA, Year 10 students are thinking about and planning for their subject selections for Year 11 Preliminary and Year 12 HSC.
Students receive an information book that describes all of the subjects on offer at Maitland High School in Term 3. There is further information given to parents and students at an information evening at the school. This is followed by an individual 30 minute interview with each student to discuss future directions, subject choices and career directions.
Our Year 10 students have many opportunities to be involved in leadership and representative roles and to participate in extra-curricular activities such as:
One week Snow excursion for high achievers, two Work Experience placements in Term 2 and 4, subject specific excursions, Year 10 Celebration of Achievement Evening at East Maitland Bowling Club in Term 4.
- Snow excursion (for selected students who have demonstrated effort in class)
- Work experience
My role is to help support Year 10 students and provide assistance for individual students with educational decisions, help with subject progress and study habits, social guidance or emotional problems and advice or information to parents. Please feel free to contact me.
