Other features:
Collegiate (girls) and Hutchins (boys) Schools are brother/sister schools within 5 minutes distance from each other. During Years 11 and 12 we combine the two schools curriculums. Therefore Years 11 and 12 have some co-ed classes. For example: A girl wants to take Design in Wood and a boy wants to do Hospitality. Each school shares their facilities - doubling the opportunities. All students are transported back and forth between schools by the school buses. It's great!
