Transition program
At Kelso High we see the transition from primary school to secondary school as a significant step and it is essential that we give students an opportunity to move gradually through this change. Our iLearn program is central to providing quality transition for Year 6 students intending to enrol at the school.
Our transition program for Year 6 students comprises:
- iLearn Transition Program (ongoing)
- An Orientation Night held in Term 1
- A second Orientation Night held in Term 4
- A full day Orientation Day held in late November
The program is open to students from our feeder primary schools as well as non-government schools. The iLearn Transition Program involves students visiting the campus once a term to participate in interactive lessons that allow them to become familiar with staff, students and facilities, as well as experience subject areas that are offered in the Kelso High curriculum.
