A group of eighteen Year 11 students volunteered to conduct a day of teambuilding activities at the Valley Campus for Year 6 students from St Marys and Bicheno Primary schools. These primary students will be all together at St Marys High School next year, and the program serves as a transition day for them to get to know each other. It also provides an excellent opportunity for our Year 11s to experience authentic leadership while strengthening the College’s connections to the community in the Fingal Valley.
The Year 11 students went out to the Valley the day prior to set up and rehearse the activities, and then the primary students arrived on Tuesday morning. The primary students were very excited and enthusiastic and were fully engaged in the program that our students had planned for them. Our Year 11s did an outstanding job of connecting with the students and providing them with a day of very fun and meaningful activities.
