Galen Catholic College would like to congratulate all Year 12 students across the 2018 VCE and VCAL courses on their results. We are very pleased with our outstanding success rate of 100% at VCE and that a further 21 Galen students have achieved their Senior VCAL.

We are very pleased to announce that the Dux for 2018 is Jacob Motha with an ATAR of 90.75 placing him in the top 10% of students in the state. We are equally pleased to report that so many students have achieved to the best of their ability in what has been a most challenging year. They have given themselves the best possible opportunity to move onto their preferred next steps in life whether that be employment, further study or a GAP year.

Galen Principal, Bernard Neal, said that the staff and Galen community are proud of the efforts of the 2018 cohort. “It is really important to note that we are equally proud of all students who put in their best effort regardless of their subject scores and ATARs and regardless of whether they completed their VCE or VCAL. We are proud to have played such a pivotal role in preparing these young people over their final six years of school education.”

Mr Neal also said, “The breadth of opportunities available to our students through VCE, VCAL, School Based Apprenticeships and VET has ensured that the senior students at Galen have been able to tailor courses to suit their particular needs and interests. Today’s results will enable them now to step forward with confidence and a sense of achievement that opens new doors into their futures. We wish all the students well on the next stage of their journey – Galen will always be here to help and advise them as needed, and to celebrate their future successes with them. We hope that they will continue to be as proud of their Galen heritage as we are of them.”
