As students enter into their pre-adult years, they begin to demonstrate bursts in intellectual growth, personal choice, independence, self-determination and leadership. It is in the Senior School that we approach education with subject offerings, engaging content, extra-curricular activities and tailored support, with a clear view to nurturing and encouraging the development of these traits in our students. At the end of their education, a St Luke's graduate will be prepared academically, emotionally and personally for the demands of the 21st Century.
A proud mother of two grown children who both attended St Luke's from Kindy to Year 12, Robyn has been a part of teaching and education at St Luke's Anglican School since 1998. With a strong academic background and extensive teaching experience, she now serves as our Head of Senior School.
Robyn is passionate about developing the character of her students, and the importance of relationships between teachers and students, which she believes is one of the most significant differences between St Luke's and other schools.
St Luke's Senior School is the final stage in our students' formal schooling before they move onto tertiary education or into the wider world. The curriculum and structures of our Senior School are particularly appropriate for our young, emerging men and women so they can achieve success and embrace their future.
St Luke’s Anglican School prides itself on the care and concern it shows for individual students and their families. Because the Senior School is a relatively small cohort, and the class sizes are kept small, teachers have the opportunity to tailor their time and expertise to each student through individual attention.
All students in the Senior School will undertake a course of literacy and numeracy at a level which they can master. These courses are developed in conjunction with the Queensland Curriculum Authority (QCAA), and utilise the Australian Curriculum, as overseen by the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA). St Luke’s also prides itself on providing a broad range of diverse Senior elective subjects, aimed at catering for all students' interests and abilities, and enabling them to pursue their passions and plot their course for the future.

Student leadership in Senior School provides opportunities, considered vital in the development of self-esteem, emotional growth and confidence, for students at St Luke’s Anglican School. St Luke's students have many opportunities to develop responsible behaviour during their time at the School by undertaking any of the following formal leadership positions:
“St Luke's provides a school environment that educates and nurtures my children in a way that they can achieve their maximum potential and go on to adult life with opportunities."
St Luke's Senior School is the final stage in our students' formal schooling before they move onto tertiary education or into the wider world. It is important, then, that the curriculum and structures of our Senior School are particularly appropriate for our young, emerging men and women so they can achieve success and embrace their future.
