Lyneham High School is a secondary school in Canberra founded in 1959. Located in the suburb of Lyneham, It has over one thousand students and is at full capacity. It has two enrichment programs running: a selective gifted and talented academic program called LEAP (Lyneham Enriched Academic Program), and a similar program aimed at elite athletic students called SEAL (Sporting Excellence At Lyneham). The school has well established performing arts programs, offering concert and jazz bands, performance-based music classes, drama and dance classes, and the opportunity to participate in musical theatre productions.

Enrollment

Currently, 1069 students are enrolled at Lyneham High School. The feeder schools are Turner Primary and Lyneham Primary School. See Enrollment Areas for Lyneham High School for more information.

Band Program

Lyneham High School's band program consists of five concert bands and two jazz bands, as well as several smaller ensembles. The concert bands are the Year 7 Beginner Band (for new students who are just beginning to learn an instrument), the Year 7 Concert Band (for new students who already play the instrument), the Year 8 Concert Band (which is joint by Year 7 Beginner and Concert Band from the previous year, most years is the largest concert band in the ACT), the Year 9 Concert Band, and the Year 10 Concert Band. The jazz bands are the Intermediate Jazz Band (for students proficient in their instrument in years 7 and 8) and the Senior Jazz Band (students in years 9 and 10). Every year, all of these bands enter the Australian National Eisteddfod, and all of the concert bands go on tours.

Towards the later stages of the year, Year 10 students are offered places in the Ginninderra Wind Orchestra as a means of continuing their musical careers after leaving Lyneham.

LPAC

Lyneham High School received a grant from the A.C.T. Government to build a new Performing Arts centre to help better the Performing Arts program at the school. Architects have completed the blueprints for the $5.3 million complex and construction began in June 2009. The Performing Arts centre was completed in March 2010, opened by Andrew Barr MLA. The centre has already hosted its first Lyneham High musical and several band performances. It was also the venue for the 2010 Australian National Jazz Eisteddfod.

LEAP

LEAP (Lyneham Enriched Academic Program) provides an opportunity for high school children to enhance their learning, in the fields of Maths, Science, Social Studies (SoSE) and English. It provides a foundation for bright students intending to study these subjects at higher levels. The program is selective, with around thirty students being accepted in each year. LEAP students regularly receive awards for their completion of various academic competitions, in which they regularly receive high marks.

The requirements of LEAP are that the students are to sit the Australian Council for Education tests in the subjects of English, Mathematics, and Science.

LEAP students attend two camps aside from other students throughout their schooling at Lyneham High School: one in Year 8, and one in Year 10.

SEAL

The SEAL (Sporting Excellence At Lyneham) program is aimed at elite athletic students, giving them the opportunity to improve in their chosen sport by attending scheduled training sessions weekly. Some of the sports offered include: Swimming, Soccer, Tennis, Cricket, Basketball, Netball, Hockey, AFL, Rugby Union, Volleyball and Weights. Meanwhile, the PE system allows SEAL students to catch up on work missed due to attending the specialist sessions. SEAL students are also obliged to participate in a minimum of 3 events at each of the school carnivals, (Swimming, Cross Country and Athletics).
