Taree High School, also known as THS, is a secondary, public, co-educational, comprehensive day school, located in Taree, a city on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales, Australia. Established in 1908, the Taree High School is the oldest of the high schools located in the Taree area, and currently caters for approximately 900 students from Years 7 to 12, servicing Taree and the Manning Valley. The school is equipped with specialist facilities, and works closely with local primary schools, the business community and Taree TAFE.〔 A semesterised curriculum is used at the school, providing a variety of subjects and units. Taree High School is a school of the New South Wales Department of Education and Communities (DEC). In 2013 Taree High School, along with Taree Public School, became part of the (Connected Communities Strategy ).〔http://www.dec.nsw.gov.au/about-the-department/our-reforms/connected-communities〕 This strategy aims to provide tailored programs to improve educational outcomes for Aboriginal students and their families across NewSouth Wales. The motto adopted by Taree High is ''Flumen Coronent Filii'', which may be translated from Latin as "May your sons and daughters crown the river", referring to the Manning River, a feature of the town of Taree.〔(【引用サイトリンク】About us ) 〕 Current facilities of the school include a library, full-size gymnasium, drama room with lighting, sound equipment and stage curtains, canteen, Year 12 outdoor area and common room, school hall, Aboriginal resource room, agricultural farm, and a special education unit. The current (Executive Principal ) of Taree High School is Allison Alliston, with the two current (Deputy Principals ) being Nigel Reece and Raylene Starke. ==Curriculum== Taree High School is a New South Wales Department of Education and Communities school, and therefore follows the New South Wales Board of Studies curriculum for all years. The school has implemented a unitised curriculum involving Years 8 to 10, in order to provide students with a wide range of subject choices. As students progress through Years 8 to 10, they are offered a wider number of subject choices. In addition to the mandated, more traditional areas of study, the school offers unique study units such as Outdoor Education, Ceramics and Robotics. In the senior years, students are prepared for the Higher School Certificate (HSC) and may study the Board Developed Courses in order to satisfy requirements. Alternatively, Taree High School offers a Work Studies program involving TAFE study and work placement for those students wishing to enter the workforce upon completion of their high school education. All students have access to Vocational Education (VET) courses through both the school and TAFE.〔 Taree High School also participates in the Senior Curriculum Advantage project, which uses the course offerings at all three Manning Valley High Schools, Chatham, Wingham and Taree, to ensure Year 11 and 12 students can access a broad and relevant curriculum. Senior students may choose to remain at one school only or to access courses at other "host" school on a Wednesday afternoon in lieu of sport. Students who leave school before receiving their Higher School Certificate (HSC) receive the NSW Record of School Achievement (RoSA). The RoSA records all completed Year 9, 10 and 11 courses and grades, and participation in any uncompleted Year 11 courses. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Taree High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
