Welcome to our Year 9 into Year 10 100hr Elective information website.
This website provides information on the Stage 5 100 hour elective courses and Accelerated Stage 6 courses that will be offered at North Sydney GHS in Year 10 2026.
It is very important that students take the time to research the subjects they are interested in and make their own choice (not necessarily the same choices as their friends).
Students should choose subjects that:
- play to their strengths / abilities
- they are interested in and will commit to working hard in
- are helpful to their future
In Year 10 students will study -
● ONE additional (different) 100-hour course
OR
● ONE Accelerated HSC (Preliminary) course
The courses on offer in 2026 are listed below. More detail on each course can be found in the 2026 Year 10 Electives Booklet. Choosing an elective is an important decision, and this booklet will assist in making that choice.
Accelerated Stage 6 Courses
Accelerated Stage 6 courses begin in Year 10. They will run on the 100-hour line and will be completed in Year 11. This means that the student will be studying an HSC course in Year 11. Students studying an accelerated course in Year 10 will be required to attend a Period 0 (7:45am) lesson each week.
