Introduction

The Middle School at Kearnan College caters for students from Years 7 to 9. We support the development of academic skills and social strategies of students in these year groups as they move through the exciting, yet challenging, transition of early adolescence. The aim of our Middle School is to provide all students with a quality education which enables them to develop their skills, knowledge and talents to the fullest extent.

The Kearnan Experience

Our Middle School setting provides Years 7, 8 and 9 students with a precinct that is theirs alone.  The transition to secondary schooling can be daunting for twelve year olds, so we have a Middle School building where all Year 7 classes and most Year 8 classes are timetabled.  This enhances our Middle School students’ feelings of belonging and reduces some of the initial fears faced by some students when they commence secondary education.
