SCOTS PCG College opened it's doors to potential new students as part of its first open day for the year.

Parents and children were taken on tours of the school grounds on Friday getting an insight into the school for mid-year and next year enrolments.

Operating regular classes during the day visitors were shown into biology, art, LOTE and the industrial shed class rooms and how they operate.

The schools marketing and enrolments officer Helen Bohm said it was best families were shown the daily operations of the school.

"It was a nice way to showcase the school for what it is, working in a way of a typical school day.

"Families get to see exactly what goes on in the class rooms and the learning environment.

"The biology class was cutting into cow hearts and sheep lungs when we came in which was one of the things visitors got to see,” she said.

The prep to year 12 school is well known for its extra curriculum activities such as sporting teams, the agriculture department and the equestrian facilities.

Offering boarding services the school attracts students from across Australia.

"We had families coming from all over Queensland as well as far north New South Wales to see the facilities,” Mrs Bohm said.

Subject range, skill development and social caring were some of the focusses from potential enrolments.

"An excellent subject range to offer for the kids is very important,” Helen McFarland said.

"We're looking at the potential learning grounds, what the children get to explore, what skills they will learn and of course friendship groups,” Liza Bronger said while visiting the school.

Finishing with a Scots tradition the guests were farewelled by an assembly lead by a bagpipe performance.

A second open day will be held in September later this year.
