ACC Hume plans expansion into secondary schooling

The Australian Christian College – Hume has applied to expand to include Year 7 students from next year.

The Benalla school made the announcement during a ‘7’ themed afternoon tea celebration, which was attended by current students and staff.

School principal Terry Harding said the idea came to the table following feedback from parents.

“When Year 6 families approached me about expanding to include high school from 2021, I eagerly accepted the challenge,” Dr Harding said.

“It is an incredible vote of confidence that our existing families are committed to ACC’s curriculum and community.

“I look forward to a favourable response from the Victorian Registration and Qualifications Authority application.”

The idea is to begin with Year 7, then add a grade each year until the school can offer a full P-12 curriculum.

Expressions of interest for enrolments for the 2021 class of Year 7 are now being accepted.
