Gifted and talented education

As part of Lambton High School's GATS program, students are encouraged to excel in all areas of their education: academic, sporting, cultural and leadership activities.[3] In 2009, Carmel Tebbutt, the NSW Minister for Education presented 40 students from all NSW public schools with a Minister's Award for Excellence. Three Lambton High School students were fortunate to receive this award, Annabel Fleming, Caitlyn Read and Leah Serafim. This was the greatest number of awards received by any one school within the state.[4]

History

Lambton High School was formed in 1974, by the merger of Newcastle Hill Boys High School and Hamilton Girls High School.[5]

On 29 September 2008, the Federal Cabinet (including Prime Minister Kevin Rudd) attended Lambton High School as part of the Australian Government Community Cabinet Program.[6][7][8]

Examination results

At the 2009 HSC, Lambton High School ranked 143rd[9] in New South Wales, up from 150th in 2008.[10] In 2008, it increased its student "All rounders" from 33 to 47.[11]

However, in 2014, Lambton High's HSC ranking fell to 388th in the state from 198th in 2013, which was the largest decline of any school in the Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Upper Hunter or Central Coast Region.[12]

Co-curricular activities

Green Day

In 1995 the school began celebrating "Green Day", to raise awareness about environmental problems and promote environmental sustainability.[13] In 2007, the Green Day slogan was "Keep on Rockin' For a Green World" and the focus was on climate change and global warming.[14]
