Beaconhills College is celebrating a strong set of 2024 VCE results, with more than half of students who obtained an ATAR represented in the top 30 percent of the state’s results.
In total there were 26 students across the Berwick and Pakenham campuses with ATARs of 90 and above, 70 students with 80+ and 115 students with 70+.
College and Berwick Campus Dux was Charlotte Moseley (99.4 ATAR) with a perfect study score of 50 in her Media subject.
Pakenham Campus Dux was Myeisha Avenido with a 98.2 ATAR.
Berwick Campus Year 11 student Manuth Galabada Widanarachchige added two more perfect subject scores to the results with a 50 in both Physics and Mathematical Methods.
Executive Principal Stephen McGinley congratulated all students from the Class of 2024 and described the results as a “fantastic testament to the Beaconhills College model of education”.
“The fact that in the subject scores of 40 and above, there were 19 different subjects represented really speaks volumes about the benefits of students following their passions and interests,” Mr McGinley said. Beaconhills offers a choice of 38 VCE subjects.
“Beaconhills students continue to achieve such great results while still making the most of a holistic education – and being involved in everything a leading independent school has to offer.
“This is a just reward for our students who have worked hard, and gives them a solid foundation for the next exciting chapter of their lives.”
College Dux Charlotte Moseley said she was “shocked and excited” when she saw her 99.4 ATAR at 7am.
Charlotte deliberately chose an eclectic mix of VCE subjects; Literature, Media Studies, Visual Communication and Design, General Mathematics, Biology and Psychology (studied in Year 11).
She believes that choosing subjects she loved translated to good results and advised next year’s students to do the same.
“I would say definitely pick the subjects you enjoy doing and that you are passionate about,” Charlotte said, adding that she also tried to break her studies into “little steps and achievable goals”.
