More than a Senior High School!
41 years of experience has taught us a lot, most importantly Vocational Education & Training cannot work as an “add on” to a high school. We have a unique winning formula, that no other school in Port Macquarie or even the Mid North Coast has!
The opportunities that students at Newman College are offered are truly unique. Year 11 and 12 students study their HSC in combination with specialised ‘on’ and ‘off the job’ training in ‘state of the art’ facilities with industry standard equipment. To support our ‘hands on’ learning, students attend our College four days per week and learn ‘on the job’ in workplaces across the Mid North Coast one day per week.

Jade Munro
Thank You Newman
Newman College has enabled me to build lasting relationships with friends and work employees while gaining fundamental skills that will impact my life in the workplace forever. Newman allowed me the opportunity to put my foot in the door whilst still finishing school and gaining a Higher School Certificate. Through Newman I have failed, grown, achieved and overall become the person I am today. Thank you Newman.

Good Different
Newman is a different kind of school, good different. It can be daunting knowing the shoes you have to fill, once you finish high school, but the teachers and staff at Newman ensure you are well equipped for what the future holds. It’s a safe place where you are able to genuinely enjoy yourself and the last years of your long schooling journey. I can’t thank Newman enough for everything they have done for me.

Confidence in Self
Newman College has given me something that 10 years of schooling prior never could, confidence in self. When I look at myself in Year 10 compared to now, I think – wow I have done things I never thought I would and got enough experience under my belt to make employers think – yes I want this guy.

Gave me the best head start for the future
Newman College was the best decision I have made in my schooling career. Coming to this school has given me an experience like no other. Being able to go out into the workforce once a week gives you the chance to work and learn in your chosen subjects. Then for myself gaining a School-based Traineeship early on in Year 11 working one day a week then two days in Year 12, gave me the best head start for my future. The school environment is a very welcoming and comfortable environment. The teachers are great and very helpful in their fields and I thank them for everything they have done. I have enjoyed my two years at Newman and I can guarantee everyone who enrols at Newman will as well.
