Daniel Pietrobuono was named Dux of Epping Secondary College for 2015 with an outstanding ATAR score of 95.6. This is a fantastic result and Daniel who worked incredibly hard throughout the year is to be congratulated. Daniel achieved a 45 study score for Legal Studies, 42 for Specialist Maths and 42 for English.
An increased number of students achieved ATAR scores above 80 and 70. Some outstanding individual results included Andrea Corolovski (year 11) with a 45 in Macedonian and Belvinder Singh with a 44 in Indonesian and 42 for EAL.
Eighty four students applied for tertiary positions with 81 being offered first round places in most major institutions; 58 going on to University placements this year and 23 into TAFE/Vocational courses. Placements include a large number in education courses, the sciences, nursing and as diverse as medical sciences, aviation management and landscape architecture.
Special mention needs to go to Shae Turnbull (VCAL 2015) who has been offered a position at Melbourne Polytechnic in their primary teaching course for 2016 – the first to get in without an ATAR score but a very successful interview and testing process. CONGRATULATIONS!
