Welcome to Clarkson Community High School

Free Cybersafety Event

Protecting children in their digital worlds is an ever-evolving task for Australian families. Now more than ever parents are looking for guidance on how to manage screen time and navigate the world of games and social media. We are therefore pleased to help our parent community by offering a crucial and engaging education session with ySafe, Australia’s leading provider of cyber safety education.

This practical, strategy-rich session will cover the most important points that all families need to know about online safety, covering key information about social media and gaming, screen time recommendations, and step-by-step instructions on how to set up a cyber-safe home for kids of all ages.

Forever In Our Hearts

Today, the Clarkson CHS Community farewell a beloved member of staff, Penny Rickerby.

Penny was a valued and much-loved member of the Clarkson Team for 25 years. She worked tirelessly as our Lab Technician and will be remembered for her kindness and willingness to help others.

Clarkson Challenge 2022

It's Science Week, and today we ran our annual STEM event for our local primary schools called The Clarkson Challenge.

This year the theme was "Minecraft Sustainable Cities". Teams of students from Clarkson, Merriwa and Somerly Primary Schools came to learn about what makes a sustainable city, then designed and built their cities in their own Minecraft worlds.

Each team presented their cities to a panel of judges, and the winning team won free tickets to Sci-Tech, and the Clarkson Challenge trophy!
