Why choose us?
Camden Haven High School is a unique Year 7 to Year 12 comprehensive public high school, proudly providing education to students both on campus and at a distance.
Located in Laurieton on the beautiful Mid North Coast, our school brings together a diverse learning community through three distinct educational pathways: Mainstream Education, Full-Time Distance Education and Single Course Distance Education.
One school. Three pathways. Many opportunities.
Our vision: Our school provides a safe, respectful and supportive environment for wellbeing and academic success.
Mainstream Education
Our face-to-face school provides students with a welcoming, inclusive and supportive learning environment. Students have access to a broad curriculum, extracurricular opportunities, wellbeing support and the many experiences that come with being part of a vibrant school community.
Full-Time Distance Education
For eligible students whose circumstances meet NSW Department of Education requirements, Full-Time Distance Education provides an alternative way to access secondary education. Students in Years 7 to 12 learn remotely while remaining connected to their teachers, learning opportunities and the wider Camden Haven High School community.
Single Course Distance Education
For eligible secondary students who cannot access a particular course through their home school, Single Course Distance Education can provide opportunities to broaden curriculum choice. Students remain enrolled at their home school while studying an approved course through Camden Haven High School Distance Education.
Connected by one school
What makes Camden Haven High School special is the diversity of the students we support and the ways in which we support them. Whether learning face-to-face on our Laurieton campus or through Distance Education, our students are part of a school committed to providing quality education, connection and opportunities for success.
We provide a safe, respectful and supportive environment where students are encouraged to develop their strengths, pursue their goals and Aim for the Highest.
Full-Time and Single Course Distance Education enrolments are subject to NSW Department of Education eligibility criteria, application requirements and approval processes.
