    院校简介

      Ballajura Community College, which commenced operations in 1995, has grown from an initial enrolment of 650 students to an enrolment for 2008 of 1940 students (years 7 - 12).  It is the largest school in Western Australia and possibly Australia as well. It is a school which is innovative in both structure and in operation.  The college welcomes the community to contribute as active partners in its educational, sporting, cultural and recreational programs.

      Physical Structure

      The college is comprised of two campuses, delivering comprehensive education programs in two distinct phases.  These are a Middle School campus for Years 7 to 9 and the Senior Campus meeting the needs of students from Years 10 to 12. The campuses are separated by the school oval and other sporting facilities. The school buildings were planned over a number of stages to deal with an expected peak enrolment of approximately 2000 students. Some of the facilities are shared between the two campuses.  These include the Technology block, gymnasium, Drama room and Dance studio as well as some specialist facilities in the Visual Arts block such as the ceramics studio.   Stage IV of the building program, which was finalised during 2001, saw the opening of a Performing Arts Centre, an extension to the gymnasium, the Materials Technology Centre and the refurbishment of the temporary Drama room and the Tiered Learning Area.  These facilities have added value to the school"s programs.

      College Ethos 

      The design of the college, physically and philosophically, addresses the special needs of young adolescents and is at the cutting edge of educational reform in Western Australia.  Changing trends in employment, education and training have indicated the need for a more responsive curriculum. In order to be successful, students need to be self managed, proactive in their own learning and able to work in various groups.  The traditional role of the teacher as expert needs to change to that of a facilitator within a multi-disciplinary team to deliver the curriculum.In response to this, Ballajura Community College has developed an ethos that requires teachers to demonstrate a commitment to an outcomes-based approach as the basis for the middle schooling curriculum delivery.  This is built around an integrated, cross curricula approach that aims to develop a core of essential learning outcomes rather than curriculum content knowledge.  It is intended that our students will be able to research, produce, organise, collaborate and take on leaders

      Creating Our Future Together The college’s purpose is to provide a positive, caring and supportive environment that promotes life long learning and the Ballajura Community College’s values of compassion, inspiration, enterprise and achievement through the pursuit of personal excellence.  Vision Statement
