Southern River College

Welcome to Southern River College

Respect and Understanding

Southern River College's motto, 'Respect and Understanding' is the foundation for the core values which are promoted across the College and to the broader community. 'Respect and Understanding' reflects our intentions to develop a supportive and inclusive environment for all students.

4R's

The College has developed and profiled our unique '4R's:

• Relationships
• Respect for Oneself
• Respect for Others
• Respect for the Environment

The 4R's are symbolic of the values which we believe our students can take with them on their journey through life. These are clearly articulated throughout the College community by students and staff as we work together on a daily basis.

Southern River College Excels

Our school has a rich history, this being our 36th year in operation. We have much to celebrate. Last year our students again had great success with our Year 12 graduating class both at the individual student level and as a cohort. For our efforts in 2010 we were again presented with a Top Public School Award.

Following is a snapshot of our success:

• 100% of our students graduated with a Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE) placing us in the top 50 public schools in the state.
• Three students received a Curriculum Council Certificate of Excellence.
  • Daniel Millea ex - Huntingdale PS
  • Emily Oostdam Leenhouwers ex – Wirrabirra PS
  • Megan Ventris ex - Ashburton PS
• 10% of our students received a TER of 75+
• 72.1% average based on our ATAR students
• 35% of our students received a TER of 65+
• First 50 VET Schools Award
• 66.67% of our students achieved Cert II or higher in Year 12.
• Two of our subjects had a ATAR mark higher than the 'All School' average Mathematics 2cd, 3ab and Geography 3ab

These results are an outstanding testament to the dedicated staff and talented students at Southern River College.
