- Primary: Italian.
- Secondary: Latin, French, Indonesian and Chinese.

At my school (CGS), you learn all 4 languages from Years 7-8 (1 language per term) to get a taste of each language. In Year 9, you can just choose 1 or 2 language(s) to study or alternatively, don't choose any languages.

Chinese and French are the most popular at my school. I'm yet to regret choosing Latin, it's a good LOTE.
