Year 6s- Transitioning into PCG and preparing for 2023
After the success of Middle College Orientation Day held last Tuesday, our Year 6 students were invited to attend a morning Pastoral Care Group (PCG) as part of their transition and preparation for 2023.
Students were welcomed by their PCG teacher and peers, who will journey with them when they return next year as Year 7 students. During the Year 6 students transition PCG mornings, which will be held each Thursday until the end of the term, students will engage in activities, devotion and build a connection with their PCG members so that they feel comfortable, confident and ready for 2023. It was also wonderful to see Year 6 students leading this week’s 7-10 assembly and sitting with their PCG group at this time.
Year 9s- Transitioning as Senior College Students
As the term progresses, Year 9 students, returning from their two-week Outdoor Education experience will also engage in transitional activities, preparing them for Senior College in 2023. Students will attend their first Leadership Day on Thursday 24th November and their Rite Journey Homecoming Ceremony. The Year 9 cohort will also link in with this year’s cohort of Year 10 Peer Mentor Leaders, who will share their own experiences of transition into the Senior College and how they have grown through the journey.
Year 8s- Transitioning as Leaders of the Middle College
With the many transitions occurring across Middle College this term, our Year 8 Students are currently learning about servant leadership in Personal Development. Exploring their character strengths and how they can contribute and grow as leaders of Middle College in 2023. Towards the end of this term, Year 8 students will have the opportunity to nominate and interview for positions of Middle College Leadership, commencing 2023. Details of how to nominate and the leadership process will be shared with students during Personal Development lessons and supported by Heads of House and Mr Brett Kersnovske, Head of Middle College Students.
