[edit] Current and past students
A group of students from Chevalier College have recently set up the webpage http://chev.tk in order to promote continued peer relationships and provide a network through which to find old Chevalier friends. This group, 'Chevalier Students and Friends', also aims to provide Year Ten, Eleven and Twelve Chevalier students with discussion sessions about the workforce after school, TAFE and tertiary studies through citing personal experiences from members of the group. There is also a Forum for those members interested in meeting other Chevalier Students and discussing important issues in, outside and beyond Chevalier.
