Located in Lara, Victoria, Australia, Lara Secondary College is a public coeducational secondary school. When the school first started, it only admitted junior students.
With time, all grades were enrolled. Excellence, dedication, teamwork, respect, and “realising your potential” are among the school’s core principles.
Its objectives are to guarantee that every student succeeds, to establish a secure learning environment, and to enable students to realise their full potential.
Victoria’s Lara Secondary College has recently taken a step forward to elevate the curriculum and provide holistic growth. The authorities of this organisation have now implemented cricket as the new primary subject. Read here for more information.
