Roxburgh College is committed to providing you with a safe and challenging learning environment with plenty of opportunities to learn and achieve your best. As a Year 9 student you will be provided with an exciting curriculum delivering significant choice and an excellent variety of subjects. 

A major goal for Year 9 at the College is to encourage personal, social and cultural discovery and to help students realise their talents, strengths and interests. These new understandings will assist students as they grow in maturity and prepare to move into the Senior School to begin exploring content and skills in greater depth. 

Year 9 students become the leaders of the Middle School ready for exciting challenges. Year 9 students will engage in a range of Discovery Investigations involving the Positive Relationships Workshop, Pathway Interviews, Interschool Sport, Debating, Public Speaking, Instrumental Music, Academic Competitions and Student Leadership. 

This handbook will assist you and your parents or guardians to gain an understanding of the curriculum at Year 9. It contains an overview of the curriculum structure and descriptions of each of the subjects you will be studying and which subjects you may choose to study. 

You and your parents or guardian will need to read this handbook thoroughly. Selection Sheets at the end of the Handbook will need to be submitted by the set date. If you have any questions about the unit selection process or about any units please ask a Coordinator
