WollumbinHighSchool介绍

　　Wollumbin High School was established in 1995. The school enjoys a reputation within the community for student welfare, an excellent dress code and a learning culture with a core belief that everyone learns and that learning how to learn is essential to prepare students for a changing future. Teaching and learning are the keys to the school's culture. This is affirmed by our school mission and supported by the school motto 'Together We Learn'.
