We recognise that the move from primary to secondary school can be a big change for students and their families. Every Year 7 student participates in a comprehensive transition program designed to provide a firm foundation for their secondary education.

in a comprehensive transition program
designed to provide a firm foundation
for their secondary education.
Specially tailored programs begin well before a student arrives at Star:
- All students undertake a literacy, numeracy and general-reasoning test:
- this data, together with information from their primary school, assists in forming Mentor Groups so their learning potential is maximised
- parents and guardians receive a copy of the testing report
- An information evening for parents and guardians is held in Term 3 (students do not attend)
- Students attend Orientation in early December.
