McClelland College has two elite programs for our Year 7 students to choose from and for which to apply: EP Plus and the Elite Performance Program (EPP). The EPP recognises and allows for students to be elite performers in any subject and to excel in their chosen field/s. We will be taking applications later in the year with more information to follow. Applications for EPP will be due September 8 th 2017 followed by an interview with the Year 7 team.
