As you may know, in 2021 Hobart City High School (HCHS) and Elizabeth College (EC) formed the Hobart City Partner Schools Partnership. This arrangement has enabled both schools to work closely together to give students strong learning pathways for employment, further training or higher education.
In 2022, Year 7 students and Years 8-10 girls attended the Ogilvie Campus of HCHS, with Years 8-10 boys attending the New Town Campus.
From 2023, HCHS became fully co-educational. The New Town Campus focuses on Years 9 and 10, with the Ogilvie Campus focusing on Years 7 and 8, as well as hosting the Hobart Big Picture program for years 9-12.
We are looking at the next steps for our schools so more of our young people can pursue their passions and continue to learn for longer, as they start to shape their future.
3P Advisory, a Tasmanian consultancy which specialises in stakeholder engagement and consultation, has been engaged to undertake consultation on HCHS and EC’s current model and partnership arrangements to identify a future operational model.
This work has been brought forward to bring certainty and stability to everyone ahead of the preferred model being implemented with a 2025 start date in mind.
The sessions listed below are for interested current students and parent/carers to participate in the consultation.
Monday 11 September | 3.45 – 4.45pm | Elizabeth College Library |
Thursday 21 September | 4.45 – 5.45pm | Elizabeth College Library |
Thursday 21 September | 6.30 – 7.30pm | Online Forum |
Thursday 21 September | 7.30 – 8.30pm | Online Forum |
Some of the current possibilities could be:
However, it’s important to know that these are possible options only and nothing has been decided. This is where you come in. We want your thoughts about how HCHS and EC can best deliver learning outcomes and strong pathways for all students, both now and into the future.
The purpose of these session is to lead and focus discussions around:
In addition to the above sessions, 3P will also host an informal walk-in session on:
This session won’t be structured, and you don’t need to make a booking. You can simply turn up to ask some questions or get more information.

This is your chance to provide your feedback on what the future looks like for HCHS and EC so please consider taking part if you can.
Please contact us via the school office if you have any questions or engage via the website or phone number listed above.
As we move towards the end of Term 3, I felt it was important to share with our community some of the great work that our Professional Learning Teams (PLTs) are doing. This year one of our school improvement priorities is Collaboration Through Inquiry so staff have been working in collaborative teams and using evidence to make informed decisions. We know that when we work in teams, it builds collective capacity and improves student learning outcomes. As a staff, we recently met to check in on team progress to date.
Below is a snapshot of the work of our teams:
As a staff we are committed to a continuous improvement agenda and ensuring the best outcomes possible for the students we work with. You would note some similarities across the PLTs – engagement, attendance, literacy and knowing our students. We cannot do this work alone. We thank our parents/carers for helping us to ensure our students are connected and on track, and our students for doing their best.
Best Wishes,
Shane Fuller – Principal

This year’s National Science Week 2023 starts with a reception at Government house hosted by Her Excellency the Honourable Barbara Baker AC, Governor of Tasmania, and Emeritus Professor Don Chalmers AO. This reception provides an opportunity for invited students from Southern Tasmanian High Schools and Colleges to network and discuss current issues, and concerns in the science domain with local professional scientists, professors, current post-graduate students, fellow students and teachers.
The Primary Schools Workshops are booking up fast. This year there are activities for primary school students in the Elizabeth College labs and classrooms around the College. They include topics such as Rocket Cars and Science you can Eat!
In Year 9 Workshops with Hobart City High School, students will join our college students in various workshops. Some of the workshops on offer are exploring alloys as we Turn Copper into Gold, Marble Waterslides and Electronic Party Lights.
The week will finish off with 150 of our College students attending the Festival of Bright Ideas on Friday the 18th. They will get the opportunity to see STEM knowledge and skills in action across a wide range of Tasmanian businesses, industries and educational institutions. They’ll be able to talk to scientists about the work and its importance, and future career/study options. One year they were even able to eat crickets!
Enrolments for Enrichment Block 2 are now open and will close on Friday 7 July at 3pm. Block 2 starts on Monday 24 July. Check out the program for offerings and enrol in Home Group or via the Student Intranet. Students may enrol in more than one activity.
