You can make the short drive to Officer for lessons in person, or choose online lessons so there is no travel on busy weeknights. You can also mix the two, depending on the week.
Whether your child goes to Wulerrp Secondary College, Clyde Secondary College, Hillcrest Christian College or Clyde Grammar, we follow the Victorian Curriculum and the VCE study designs, so lessons line up with what is being taught at school.
