Experience student life

We celebrate and respect individual differences and work in harmony to ensure success for all students. We are the senior high school of choice for the great southern region.

A unique learning environment

Engaged Learning

At our school, your child will have the opportunity to engage in a challenging and comprehensive educational program within a caring and nurturing school.

Individual Approach

Your child’s individual academic and social needs will be met within a school that values achievement, respect, tolerance, and perseverance. Our professional and experienced teachers are committed to ensuring that all students strive to excel.

Community Partnerships

At Katanning Senior High School, the success of our students is demonstrated by direct entry into university, apprenticeships, traineeships or employment. Graduates from Katanning Senior High School achieve in many different areas including business, academia, trades, teaching and human services.

Rise to the challenge with Bush Ranger Cadets

The mission of the Bush Ranger Cadet program is to support young Western Australians to take an active and lead role in the conservation of the natural environment and to understand the mechanisms for its management.

Developing creativity and critical thinking through STEM

Lower school students have one lesson a week in the STEM room where they develop their capabilities in critical and creative thinking as they learn to: generate and evaluate knowledge, clarify concepts and ideas, seek possibilities, consider alternatives, and solve problems.

Get a head start with vocational pathways

With the Great Southern Trade Training Centre on site, KSHS Students get an early start towards a Vocational Pathway in the Automotive and Engineering Industries if they choose to. The facilities include vehicle hoists, CNC Plasma cutter, CNC Lathes, and Miling Machines, Hydraulic guillotine and Pan brake and a host of Welding Technologies.

Follow the dream

Katanning Senior High School offers Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students the opportunity to participate in the Follow the Dream: Partnerships for Success program (FTD).

Keep up the great work! Our Bush Ranger cadets were recognised for winning the Cadet Division in rogaining last weekend.

Awesome effort by Sarah Watson always goes above and Beyond.

A group of volunteers have been busily preparing for R U OK? Day tomorrow.

Staff and students are asked to wear yellow tomorrow, to show their support (no jeans). 

This day is dedicated to promoting mental health awareness and encouraging meaningful conversations among students, staff, and the broader community. R U OK? Day serves as a reminder that a simple question can make a significant difference in someone’s life.

This week, our Year 12 UniReady students visited Curtin University as a part of their study in the UniReady course. This is a high-level academic program co-taught with Curtin University, which enables students to gain university admission. 

The students viewed presentations from Curtin staff and met current students who answered all their questions about life at university. They also had the opportunity to see other students from schools across WA who also offer UniReady. 

Next, they raced around the huge and vibrant campus in the Race around campus activity, where students had to solve a series of questions and find different landmarks. 

The day ended with faculty activities where our students engaged with activities from Health Sciences, Humanities, and Science, including the design of gear for superheroes and the programming of a robot!
