Welcome to the Melton Secondary College website.
Melton Secondary College has set a new course for high academic standards and strong personal and community values. Our motto, Academic Excellence states clearly our commitment that every student will reach beyond the expected levels of attainment and achieve a successful pathway to the future. Our values: Success, Team Work, Ambition, Respect and Responsibility underpin our shared committment that students will develop into leaders and positive members of our community.
The school provides an outstanding range of subjects and programs, taught by highly skilled teachers who support students to discover the wonder of learning and build sound skills and deep knowledge.
The results speak loudly of our success. Last year, our Year 12 students achieved the best results for more than ten years and the vast majority gained places in their first preference for a university or TAFE course. Over the past two years, our literacy results have improved and our students' Reading has grown at a faster rate than the state.
In Sport, our teams regularly reach the state finals and last year was no exception with our boys and girls Squash teams beating all comers to win the state championship. Our strength in the area of Performing Arts was also evident in the outstanding 2011 production Retroactive.
We are proud of these results, but we are also committed to building even greater success. This year sees the beginning of our Learning Neighborhood program where our Year 7 and 8 students are supported by a team of dedicated teachers in a friendly and supportive environment at the start of their secondary education.
With the opening of our new Science and Learning Centre, our students now have access to a state of the art centre for learning as well as experts in Science Education who are teaching the scientists of the future.
I encourage you to take the time to visit and see our school in action. If you can do so, I am sure you will agree that Melton Secondary College and its students are heading steadily and confidently towards a very bright future indeed.
