"The most essential ingredient of success as a learner is self-esteem . . . "

Middle Schooling

Educators have recently emphasised the importance of the Middle School years as the foundation for success at the secondary level.

Traditionally, the change in school environment from primary to secondary was substantial, causing unnecessary stress for students.

Teachers at Aranmore recognise that young adolescents have unique needs compared to lower primary and upper secondary students.

Aranmore provides an effective transition environment where students are able to build upon and make use of their primary school experience as they adapt to the challenges of secondary education. We have drawn upon the expertise provided by the National Schools Network, Australian Teaching Council, Australian Curriculum Studies Association and Australian Council for Educational Administration.

At Aranmore, we extend the success students enjoyed in primary school through a supportive pastoral care and curriculum program.

In 2009, Aranmore Catholic College will be educating students from Years 7 to 12.
For further information on enrolling your child in Year 7, please contact Annette on 9201 5241 or refer to Our Enrolments.
