Glen Waverley Secondary College is a non-selective public government school located in Glen Waverley, Victoria, Australia. It is one of the largest secondary schools in Victoria,〔 〕 with 1985 students and around 150 teachers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gwsc.vic.edu.au/Documents/AR_20138808.pdf )〕 In addition, the college is one of the highest performing state high schools in Victoria, it ranked 59 out of all 530 Victorian high-schools in 2013, based on the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://bettereducation.com.au/results/vce.aspx )〕 ==History== Glen Waverley Secondary College opened as Glen Waverley High School in 1960 with six old Nissen huts.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110314113758/http://www.monash.vic.gov.au/city/history/section-c-5.htm )〕 The early conditions, in May 1960, at the school were described as "appalling" with class sizes of up to 44 students. The total enrollment at the time was 227 students. In October 1960 tenders were opened for the construction of a new high school, to be built at the present location at O'Sullivan Road, to replace the Nissen huts. In 1967, the college acquired the Nayook site, its first and only rural campus, with the intention to use the area for a plantation, as part of a School Endowment Pine Plantations program. However, from 1970 to 1975, the Nayook site was developed for use as a school camp. The Nayook campus is now run by the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (DEECD), catering to over 3000 Victorian students, with continued use by Glen Waverley Secondary College.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gwsc.vic.edu.au/middle-school-camps )〕 The school's name was changed after the amalgamation of three secondary schools in the early 1990s to Glen Waverley Secondary College. The amalgamation of Syndal High School, Lawrence Secondary College (also known as Syndal Technical School) and Glen Waverley High School occurred after falling enrollments in the 1980s.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.oecd.org/australia/2732716.pdf )〕 In 1995, the college was selected as a Navigator school 〔 along with Bendigo Senior Secondary College, Apollo Parkways Primary School and Essendon North Primary School, as part of a Victorian government initiative to promote the use of technology in teaching.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://acce.edu.au/acec-2006/partners/navcon )〕 In 2004, the school received $7.8 million from the Victorian Government in an effort to replace the school's older facilities, becoming the largest recipient of the Victorian Government's school upgrade program. The college has since rebuilt major parts of the campus including a new library, administration building, and Middle School Building. The college's Art Wing and Senior Center were also renovated. In 2013, the college received an additional $159,149 in maintenance funding.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.education.vic.gov.au/about/news/archive/pages/conditionassessment.aspx )〕 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「Glen Waverley Secondary College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
