At Leongatha Secondary College, we’re striving for ‘Excellence in Education’ and as one of the largest schools in the South Gippsland area, we continue to pride ourselves on being a College that displays genuine cares for our students and their learning needs.
We aim to build strong and positive relationships between ourselves, our students and our families and see this as being very pivotal to every young person’s success in education. We want our students to feel safe and develop a strong sense of belonging in their time at LSC and our staff are always encouraged to be approachable to support in bringing this about.
Our Junior School building is specifically designed for 12-16 year old students and encourages collaborative and creative learning. Through our Student Representative Council (SRC) we are working to build opportunities for student voice to influence decision making across all areas of our college. Our Junior School also use other facilities on the campus, including the two full-sized gyms, the specialised Art and Design building and the Design and Technology building.
Our teaching staff in the Junior School are highly qualified educators and excel in curriculum development and educational innovation. We have a strong focus on providing clarity and offering meaningful feedback for our students that supports them with their growth in learning. Our teachers in the Junior School are also supported by Educational Support Staff so that we can fully cater for the interests and needs of all of our students.
In addition to our emphasis placed upon student academic learning growth, we recognise that young people need opportunity to grow in other areas, as well and it is why our College also offers a range of extra-curricula.
We believe that we offer a first class education for students of all ability levels and with our students in the Junior School having access to the very latest in Information and Communication Technologies to enhance their learning, we’re confident they are developing skills that will hold them in good stead for becoming an active and responsible citizen for the 21st-century workplace in their years beyond their time at LSC.
