Year 6

Creating Tomorrows Leaders

The final year of Junior School has the overarching theme of Creating Tomorrow’s Leaders. All Year 6 students participate in a leadership program that focusses on helping the students learn more about themselves and the varied forms of leadership required at different times. It is designed to prepare and assist the students in their transition from Junior to Middle School. Throughout the course of the year, the students complete three challenges: an intellectual, physical and a community challenge. 

The intellectual challenge takes the form of a Passion Project, in which students are supported to lead their own learning through the exploration of a passion or strong interest. The physical challenge is conducted as part of our Outdoor Education program at our Toonallook campus on the Gippsland Lakes. Students learn about problem solving and persistence as a team, working together while also having an adventure. In the community challenge, our aim is to help students begin to understand the satisfaction that comes from serving others and being involved with the community. A minimum of one hour’s service per week is required for the duration of a term. The student regularly reports to their Classroom Teacher, who supports and encourages them with assistance from the Chaplain and the Classroom Teacher.

Leaders across the world are studied, as well as our own leaders and political system, including a four day visit to Canberra.
