A message from the Executive Principal - Rod Evans

As a state college, Woodcrest welcomes the enrolment of children and young people from all families who live within our primary and secondary enrolment catchments. Our College caters for the needs and aspirations of students across all the phases of learning and is supported with the 2012 opening of the Woodcrest C & K Kindergarten.

Our vision at Woodcrest is to provide high-quality education that makes a difference to the lives of all our students in their pursuit of personal excellence. In particular we seek to equip children and young people for the present as well as the future.

To this end the college has developed a coherent, sequenced plan for curriculum delivery that ensures consistent teaching and learning expectations across all thirteen years levels.  During 2011 our college has also developed and published an explicit improvement agenda directed at achieving improved measurable outcomes in student learning.

Whilst improving literacy and numeracy are cornerstones of our students’ academic success, we also excel in technology, the arts and sport. The Academic Challenge and Enrichment (ACE) programs in Junior and Middle schools and our OP and tertiary links programs in the Senior School extend and challenge our academically gifted students.

Our Trade Training Centre will open in 2013 and complement existing partnerships with a number of TAFE providers as well as   supporting our school based traineeships and apprenticeships.

Our Web Page is currently being redeveloped and will be fully functional as soon as possible.
