Subject Counselling for 2026 

Subject counselling for students entering Year 11 and 12 in 2026 has now been completed. Senior Staff are reviewing the selections to determine what subjects we can offer in a way that supports all students to achieve their individual goals and future pathways. We look forward to building a timetable that enables every student to take steps toward their dreams.

University Visits 

This term, students had the opportunity to hear directly from university representatives. Flinders University visited GHS to deliver their River Journey sessions, providing valuable insights into university life and pathways. We also welcomed UniHub, who spoke about the opportunity to stay local while studying at university, with the support and resources of their regional campus model. These sessions help students explore their post-school options and understand the variety of pathways available to them.

Port Augusta Technical College (PATC) 

Several GHS students have participated in learning opportunities at the brand-new Port Augusta Technical College during Term 3. Congratulations to Madi Clogg, Lilly Gregory, Hudson Seidel, Aaron Hombsch, Charlie Flavel, Jakobe Evans, Ollie Heinrich, Millie Smith and Mirra Tunbridge for their involvement. We look forward to watching the program grow into the future. 

Madi Clogg and Lilly Gregory were part of the inaugural week of PATC and shared their reflections: 

“Last week was our very first week at the brand-new Port Augusta Technical College (PATC) – and what a week it was!

We’ve just started working towards our Certificate III in Allied Health Assistance through the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Education Centre (ANMEC), and we’re so grateful to PATC and ANMEC for giving us this amazing learning opportunity.

The week kicked off with the official campus opening on Monday, 4 August, where we got to hear from South Australia’s Premier, Peter Malinauskas, and Minister for Education, Blair Boyer – plus there were lots of cameras from the media covering the event.

After the excitement of the launch, we had a few things we thought could be improved, so we spoke to the staff. They listened, made changes, and made us feel much more comfortable staying on campus for the week.

In our Health and Social Support course, we’ve already learned how to assist someone from sitting to standing and from the floor without lifting aids, along with important lessons about laws and ethics, WHS, emergency procedures, and manual handling.

We’ve also made lots of new friends, shared plenty of laughs, and brought home some funny stories from our first week away.

We’re excited to head back to the Tech College this Sunday with the other GHS students – ready for more learning, new experiences, and memories we’ll never forget!”

Year 12 Countdown 

 Our Year 12 students are now in the final weeks of their school journey. With exams and final assessments approaching, they are encouraged to make the most of their study time and use feedback from teachers to refine their work. This is the time to stay focused, work hard, and finish strong—we look forward to celebrating their achievements at the end of the year.
