Principal’s Message

Applecross Senior High School continues to thrive as a dynamic, world-class learning environment. We are pleased to share that the Cook Labour Government has committed $7.9 million to a new two-storey modular learning hub, featuring eight additional classrooms, scheduled for completion in 2027. This exciting development will support our ongoing growth and enhance learning opportunities for our students.

Our campus already offers outstanding facilities, including a purpose-built Art block, a modern Science, Library and Technology building, a Performing Arts Centre, a university-style auditorium, a gymnasium and fitness centre, and tournament-standard tennis courts—all set within beautifully landscaped grounds that promote a calm and welcoming atmosphere.

At Applecross SHS, we are committed to inspiring students to enjoy learning, strive for their personal best and prepare for life. Our diverse, engaging and innovative curriculum, together with a full range of ATAR and vocational pathways, supports students in pursuing their individual goals.

Pastoral care remains at the heart of our school culture. Our values of Personal Best and Mutual Respect guide our relationships and create the supportive, respectful environment in which quality learning flourishes.

I am proud of our students, staff and community, and I look forward to the continued success of our school.
