Carrum Downs Secondary College is launching an exciting new program in 2026. We know that students perform best when they are connected to school and when they are given the freedom to pursue the areas of interest that they are most passionate about.

Karrum (spelt with a 'K') is the Indigenous word for Boomerang and the logo of our college. The 'Karrum Award' is awarded to students, staff and members of the wider community who exemplify the college values of: Respect, Integrity and Effort or make a significant contribution to our college.
