Humanities Learning Area Update

As always, Term 1 has started with a bang!

The Year 7 and 8 Our World connected curriculum is in full swing, with students exploring what it means to be Australian and Medieval History, respectively.

One of the most exciting new opportunities for students to consider will be offered to our current Year 10 cohort, students eagerly awaiting subject selection to choose subjects for their VCE or VCE VM pathways.

For the first time, in 2025, Year 10 students will have the opportunity to choose VCE Units 1 and 2 Accounting, commencing their study in 2026.

VCE Accounting has the reputation of being a tough subject that is easy to understand but challenging to master – perfect for students who love working with numbers and strive for the Magis!

This subject prepares students for a university or TAFE vocational study pathway to commerce, management and accounting, leading to careers in areas such as financial accounting, management accounting, forensic/investigative accounting, taxation, environmental accounting, management and corporate or personal financial planning. It is a prerequisite study for all students who intend to study accounting at major universities.

VCE Accounting will provide students with practical knowledge and skills to assist them in gaining employment, whether they choose to work for existing businesses or run their own.

We can’t wait for our students to take up this new opportunity!
