Yarrabing Secondary College (formerly known as Aintree Secondary School (interim name)) will open day one of Term 1 in 2024 and provide the growing local population with great educational opportunities close to home. It will be able to enrol up to 550 students when the first stage of the school is complete. In its first year of operation, Yarrabing Secondary College will open to Year 7 students only, and progressively grow by one year level thereafter.
Yarrabing Secondary College is located approximately 30 kilometres west of Melbourne in the suburb of Aintree. When fully established, the school will have 1200 students enrolled from Year 7 to 12 and 130 school staff members.
Our school grounds are close to planned parklands, sporting facilities, and we are surrounded by a supportive community. Most students that will attend our school live locally and would tend to walk or ride their bike to school.
Our school will be culturally diverse with 60% of students having a language background other than English (LOTE) spoken in the family home, with the largest LOTE languages being Hindi and Punjabi. We are proud of our diversity and our inclusive school community.
We strive to provide a nurturing and challenging environment that empowers students to reach their personal best, both academically and socially.
Our Vision
Our vision is to empower our students by developing well rounded, confident, and responsible individuals who have high expectations of themselves, and who aspire to achieve success through respect, responsibility, and collaboration.
Our Mission
Our mission is to be a safe, supportive environment that emphasizes motivation and self-discipline. Using 21st century approaches, we provide students with the means to achieve their potential and we challenge our students to grow academically, socially, culturally, and emotionally. Collaboration and positive relationships will underpin all our work.
