How are we organised?

At Wangaratta High School we strive for continuous improvement in everything that we do

Sessions and Timetable

At Wangaratta High School, we have 5 sessions a day, with an earlier lunch and afternoon recess We believe that the earlier lunch will serve all students better, especially our students that travel from out of town

Below is an example of a student's timetable:

Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) Program

A renewed and re-invigorated focus on Ready to Learn and Bring Your Own Device

The School's Bring Your Own Device Program (BYOD) enhances teaching and learning within the classroom Our rationale is to ensure all students have the skills to access opportunities to learn anytime, anywhere, while at the same time understanding how to manage technology to improve their learning

To do this, students from Year 7 to Year 12 are required to bring a suitable, charged device to school each day to support their learning, with teachers increasing the use of in-class technology-based activities to enhance pedagogy Wangaratta High School has partnered with 'Learning With Technology’ (LWT), who have put together a portal allowing parents to purchase discounted devices that meet all our minimum requirements. Parents can access further information and purchase devices by visiting the following link https://wangarattahs orderportal com au/ Please note however, that you may purchase a device from any store of your choice

For more detailed information on the School’s BYOD policy please visit the Wangaratta High School website

Student Diary

To complement our Homeroom system and support student Readiness to Learn we issue all students with a Wangaratta High School Diary This will occur on the first day of school The Diary is to be bought to each class and signed weekly by the parent/carer and Homeroom teacher. It is primarily designed to facilitate personal and learning organisation.
