Mount Larcom State School and Secondary Department is committed to our strategic vision - We Seek Higher Things. This encourages our students and teachers to continually set goals and strive to meet their potential. Underpinning our strategic vision is Mount Larcom's High Five core values - Be Safe and Responsible, Be Respectful, Be Successful, Be Honest and Be Friendly. In order to grow and enhance our values our Secondary students are awarded Champion Points for Resilience, Optimism, Attitude and Respect. Our Primary students study the You Can Do It Program and receive reward points.
We have a very dedicated staff who work above and beyond to help students achieve success. Our curriculum fully aligns with the Australian Curriculum (ACARA) and C2C ensuring that our teaching, learning, assessment and reporting are fully aligned. We provide high quality education that assists students to love learning, develop judgement and a sense of responsibility by understanding the past and preparing to embrace the future. We value respectful, open and supportive relationships between students, teachers and parents/caregivers.
Our Primary and Secondary Departments are run separately in order to ensure that there are equal opportunities for the development of leadership and pathways are strong.
Mount Larcom State School and Secondary Department’s core subjects include: English, Mathematics, Science, History, Geography, Civics and HPE. Commencing in 2017 the Year 8, 9 and 10 students will be offered four Major Elective subjects to further support students in a career pathway. These will include: Agriculture, The Arts, Manual Arts/Graphics, and Business/Economics (incorporating Extension ICT). Three lessons have been allocated to these subjects per week. Students in Year 8, 9 and 10 will also be offered a choice of minor electives which they would like to be part of for two lessons a week each term. These include Home Economics, Agricultural Studies, The Arts, Graphics, Woodwork, Metalwork, ICT’s, Economics and Business. Students may do the same minor all year or for two or three terms. Our Year 7 program enables our students to participate in each elective so that they can make informed choices.
