The Middle School comprises Years 7-9. At Year 7 the focus is transition followed by consolidation at Year 8. The Year 9 program is designed to take students out into the community and broaden their knowledge of the Australian society. \nThe structure and operation of the Senior School, Years 10-12, reflects the increased maturity of its students and the preparation for transition to tertiary studies. Year 10 students are able to access a wide range of VCE Units 1&2 and likewise in Year 11 to access Units 3&4.

A high participation rate in house activities exists at each year level. The awarding of house stripes is keenly sought after. The house system nurtures the girls pride in their college which reinforces their sense of belonging and being valued for their contribution to their house.
