Heathcote High School is a comprehensive, community school serving the learning needs of approximately 750 students. Our location, close to the Royal National Park, provides a spacious, peaceful bush setting for our students and community.
Our teaching staff are dedicated professionals, committed to the delivery of learning programs designed to cater for the diverse range of student learning needs. We further support students with specific learning needs in our autism and physical support classes and also provide an academic selective stream in the junior school.
A range of Vocational and Educational (VET) courses are provided and we continue to expand our STEM classes to meet the needs of future workplaces. Students are transitioned to post school options including university, TAFE and the workforce through the use of Personal Learning Plans, which are reviewed regularly.
Students are able to take advantage of a wide range of social and cultural links, including the Schools Spectacular, Southern Stars Showcase, MADD evenings and the annual school production. We share cultural links with Blayney High School and the Hitachi Omiya Secondary School in Japan, promoting a sense of sharing with and understanding of others.
Students take part in sporting competitions and gala days in many sports including rugby league, soccer, netball, baseball and touch football. We participate in the Interschoolsâ Mountain Bike Championship with great success. Students are also able to complete the prestigious Duke of Edinburgh Award through school provided opportunities.
We value our close links with our Primary Partner Schools, ensuring smooth transitions for our students. We believe strongly in the importance of staff, parents and carers working in partnership to achieve the very best for our students.
