Talk:Kenmore State High School

Untitled
Hi, I made this page but I'm new to the whole Wikipedia thing, and I'm not sure that my formatting is up to scratch... A little help please? Calum Smith 16:22, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Thank you for your, well, meaningful input. Perhaps you should visit Kenmore State High School for a couple of years; you might learn to spell.

Any constructive input? Calum Smith 12:42, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Images & such
I spent a while today finding images on the school's website, making in paint and getting off German Immersion & Extension Parent Support Group website some pictures to better illustrate the article.

The 3 that I didn't make I'm not entirely sure of the fair use policy thing and they might conflict with it, but I doubt it.

The page looks fairly finished to me, but I have no doubt there's a lot more to ad.

And can we stop with the stupid slander and stuff? It's really immature and belongs elsewhere

I've spent ages of my spare time getting the page up to scratch and it's really irritating to come back and find vandalism strewn across it. I would have thought the students of the school may not respect the insitution so much but respect fellow students...

Is it worth adding this?
Kenmore State High School is located in the Brisbane Central & West District in a most attractive setting on about 11.2 hectares on Moggill Creek in Kenmore. The school draws its students from the growing Western districts and the broader geographic areas, over 60 suburbs in total. The school is close to the University of Queensland.

The Community has a broad representation of socio-economic groups with a significant percentage of parents engaged in professional and managerial occupations.

The community is very supportive of the School, its values, mission and goals. Parent support groups are very active and the school enjoys a positive and productive partnership with the community it serves.

Curriculum at Kenmore State High School is based on some central principles. It is rigorous, student centered, responsive and promotes the value of learning as a life long process.

A core program is offered in the middle school (Years 8 & 9) that is rounded by three semesters of choice or enrolment in one of the signature programs of German Immersion, Music Extension or ICE (the school's laptop program). In Year 10 students complete seven semesters of core and then select five semesters from around 35 choices. In Years 11 & 12 students select from over 40 Queensland Study Authority subjects or Vocational Certificates. All students study six subjects at one time.

The school’s enrolment has increased from 1120 in 2001 to 1675 in 2010. As a result of reaching the school’s capacity the school now manages its enrolment using a catchment area and application process. Students are encouraged to enrol well in advance for the start of the school year in January. - from http://portal.cois.org/wcm/core/schooldetails.aspx?school_ID=12752 -- other details -- Enrolment: Age Range:	12 - 18 Nationalities:	10 Total Enrolment:	1670 810 boys; 860 girls School Sections: Year 8: 335 Year 9: 355 Year 10: 350 Year 11: 330 -- Administration: Principal	Wade Haynes Deputy Principal	Jo Hughes Deputy Principal	Shannyn Steel Deputy Principal	Michael Rogers School Business Manager	Shann Stephen Higher Education Adviser	Sue Cutts Faculty: Full Time:	42 men; 62 women; Part time:	1 man; 19 women; Nationalities:	5 -- Email	office@kenmoreshs.eq.edu.au -- Phone	+61 7 33271555 Fax	+61 7 33271500 - Address	Aberfeldy Street P.O.

Outdated information on OP eligibility & Extension Programs
Looking at Kenmore State High School's Program of Excellence Enrolment Guide, the information on this page is outdated. As of 2022, the school offers 3 separate extension programs - Kenmore Extension (Ken-X), German Immersion & Extension (GIEP), and Music Extension (MEX).

Additionally, information regarding the OP eligibility of subjects needs to be updated to comply with the new ATAR system. --PhloriUzo (talk) 04:20, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
