Wellington High School delivers a rich junior curriculum. Through its design and delivery, it encourages students in Year 9 and Year 10 to make connections between what they learn in compulsory subjects. Specialist English, Te Reo Māori, Mathematics, Social Sciences and Science teachers collaboratively plan units of work. Curriculum is often integrated through a common theme or social issue. Students are also given many opportunities to investigate areas of personal interest through inquiry-based learning.

Choose your language for the full year by circling the language once in Columns 81A/81B OR 82A/82B. Please note that MAI035 is the Te reo Māori option for fluent speakers.
2. Once you have made your choices, go to your Google classroom and fill in the course selection Google form.
3. If you have a clash, when entering your choices leave a gap in your selection choices and indicate the clash in the clash section of the google form.
