Dear Year 8 Students, Parents and Carers,
Planning for 2025 is well underway. Part of this process involves our Year 8 students selecting their Year 9 subjects. To support our students and families with this process we will be running a ‘Subject Selection’ information evening early next term. The details for this event are as follows:
Date: Wednesday 6 August
Time: 5:30-6:15pm
Location: HOPE Centre, Heathmont College
During this session we will outline the subjects on offer for Year 9 students in 2026 and how they can select their preferences. Descriptions of the subjects are available for you to read in our online handbook.
If you could please register your attendance for this event via this link
it would be greatly appreciated.
Enjoy the term break and we look forward to seeing many of you at this event next term.
Kind regards,

Dear Students, Parents and Carers,
The college has begun the process of planning for 2025. A big part of this planning process is the student’s subject and program selections. Early next term Year 9 students will be provided with information about the subject and programs available to them as they move into their senior years of schooling. It is hoped this will promote conversations of this nature amongst our students and their families.
The 2026 Subject Handbook is available on our college website. This contains descriptions of each of the subjects on offer at Heathmont College in 2026. It
is important to note that our Year 9 students have the opportunity to apply for
an enhancement VCE subject or a VET course as part of their selection. Information about these options can be found in the Senior School section of the handbook.
To support Year 9 students with their selections, we will be running an information session for students and guardians. The details for this event are as follows:
Date: Wednesday 6 August
Time: 6:30-7:15pm
Location: HOPE Centre
To register your attendance at this event, please complete this link.
During this session the subject and program choices will be outlined. There will be an opportunity for questions at the end of the presentation. We strongly encourage students and guardians to attend this session as historically we have observed that when guardians and students have engaged with the information sessions we provide, they are much better prepared to make informed decisions.
Enjoy the term break and we look forward to seeing many of you at this event next term.
Kind regards,
Melissa McMurray

As part of our German programme, we are committed to providing cultural experiences and understanding through a range of activities.

Afterwards, we will be partaking of a set meal in a German restaurant, sampling traditional dishes.
