Middle & Senior School Facilities

Our connected classrooms allow digital learning to be seamlessly integrated through our innovative teaching methods. To enable this we have:

• Interactive whiteboards and cloud-based technology such as Google Docs and Google Classroom
• WiFi throughout the school
• Computer labs and laptops for classes. From Year 6 onwards, the school implements a Bring Your Own Device policy, so students will need to purchase and bring their own Macbooks and ipads
• Information technology support on a needs basis during school hours

The arts play an important role in the development of our students’ talents. At AISM, we have a dedicated Performing Arts Centre which allows them to explore various art forms from dance to musical theatre.

 

The Senior Study Centre is a focal place for students to study independently between classes, to work collaboratively in small groups and a place to explore pathways to careers and tertiary courses. The AISM Careers and Pathways Advisor works closely with senior students to decide on subject selections that will increase their ability to reach their career goals.

AISM has four specialist science laboratories, so our students can develop deep understanding of content and laboratory skills from Year 6 onwards. The Australian Curriculum for Science emphasises on learning through problem solving. Our labs make sure our students have all the resources they need for academic success from an early age.

At AISM, information and communication technology (ICT) is integrated into almost every lesson, and we have a wide range of ICT equipment to ensure your child has what they need for 21st century learning.

 

Students in the Middle and Senior School have access to networked computers throughout the school, including two dedicated IT suites, one design technology workshop, the library and several MacBook trolleys, allowing the students to access their work anywhere on the school site. The ICT department monitors and protects the students while they are using the school computers and the internet.

Our state of the art design and manufacturing facility provide students with the access to a wide variety of design equipment and manufacturing processes. A dedicated computer lab for students to experiment with new ideas through Computer Aided Design is an important part of the workshop. Top branded traditional manufacturing equipment stands alongside emerging technologies such as laser cutting, 3D printing and 3D scanning devices, so students at AISM are being prepared with the future of technology in mind and at hand.
