Year 10

Year 10 at Sherbrooke Community School

Exploring Pathways. Building Confidence. Preparing for the Future.

Year 10 at Sherbrooke is a crucial year — a time when students begin shaping their senior school pathway and looking ahead to life beyond school. We support them every step of the way, with a personalised approach that nurtures their interests, strengths, and goals.

At Sherbrooke, we believe Year 10 is about empowering students to grow — academically, personally, and socially — in a supportive and flexible learning environment.

📘 A Strong Learning Foundation

Year 10 students build on their skills in core areas while starting to make choices that reflect their passions and future plans. The program includes:

• English and Mathematics

• Science and Humanities

• Health and Physical Education

• Electives in The Arts, Design Technologies, Digital Learning and more

• Access to VET (Vocational Education and Training) and accelerated VCE subjects for some students

We keep learning hands-on, relevant, and engaging — and ensure students have the opportunity to challenge themselves at the right level.

🎓 Preparing for Senior School

Year 10 is a launching point into senior pathways like VCE, VCE Vocational Major (VM), and VET. To support this transition, students participate in:

• Careers education and goal setting

• Pathways planning and course counselling

• Taster sessions for senior subjects and programs

• Structured work experience to explore industries and interests

Our careers and wellbeing teams work closely with students and families to make informed, confident decisions about what comes next.

💬 Wellbeing and Personal Growth

Year 10 can be a big year emotionally, too. That’s why we continue to prioritise:

• Positive relationships with staff and peers

• Supportive mentoring and pastoral care

• Opportunities for student leadership and voice

• A safe and inclusive school culture where every student is respected

We also support students to develop key life skills like time management, self-reflection, teamwork, and communication — all essential as they step into more independent learning.

🌿 Real-World Learning

Our Year 10 program includes opportunities for:

• Outdoor learning and sustainability projects

• Creative and enterprise initiatives

• Community involvement and volunteering

• Practical electives that build real-life capabilities

These experiences connect students to the broader world and help them see the relevance of school beyond the classroom.
