Learner Agency Program 2026 and Beyond!
The Junior, Middle, and Senior Heads of Department are currently undertaking a comprehensive review of our Learner Agency Program in preparation for 2026. This process is guided by a renewed commitment to fostering student voice, choice, and ownership in learning, with a clear and intentional focus on three key pillars: Respectful Relationships, Career Education, and Wellbeing. By aligning these priorities, we aim to strengthen the program’s impact and ensure it continues to support students in becoming confident, capable, and connected learners, ready to thrive both within and beyond the school environment.
Term 3 Report Cards
Report cards will be released next week, marking the culmination of Term 3 and providing a valuable snapshot of each student’s progress. These reports reflect our ongoing focus on student achievement, effort, and behaviour, recognising both academic outcomes and the personal qualities that contribute to a positive learning environment. We encourage families to take time to review the reports together, celebrate successes, and discuss areas for growth as we continue to support every learner in reaching their full potential.
Inquire Updates
As part of the Year 7 and 8 Inquire curriculum, students have been actively engaged in Social Action Projects designed to foster Active Citizenship and a strong sense of social responsibility. These projects empower students to identify real-world issues, collaborate on meaningful solutions, and take purposeful action within their communities. By giving back in thoughtful and practical ways, students are developing empathy, leadership, and a deeper understanding of their role in shaping a more inclusive and compassionate society.
Get Involved
At our school, getting involved is a key part of student life, with dozens of opportunities available to suit a wide range of interests. From lunchtime clubs and sporting teams to our popular Junior Gala Days, students are encouraged to connect, collaborate, and contribute beyond the classroom. These activities not only build skills and friendships but also foster a strong sense of belonging and school spirit, helping every student feel engaged and empowered in their learning journey. We even have popular Staff vs Students events, and in 2026 we are relaunching the House Cup!
