YEAR 3

TO YEAR 5

As our students grow, we continue to deliver the mandatory Australian Curriculum content; however, the methods used to deliver it focus on developing, consolidating and extending independent learning skills through close links with the Round Square IDEALS and our Learner Attributes.

Leadership is celebrated, developed and practised.  The Scotch Oakburn College Year 5 Leadership program is unique as it nurtures personal confidence, resilience and interpersonal skills, and prepares students to transition to Year 6 and the Middle School.

ROBOTICS AND CODING

A highlight of Year 4 is the Robotics and Coding program, which inspires and engages students in creative problem-solving, computer programming and cooperative work skills.

The team-based projects allow students to compete in local, state and national competitions.

INSTRUMENTAL PROGRAM

The Instrumental Music program begins in Year 4 and all students select and learn an instrument, and can also join the Junior School Band or various choirs and ensembles.

Regular performances throughout the year build confidence and skill.

The Year 5 Rock Band is another popular option.

LEADERSHIP

Leadership development is a key focus in Year 5. Students lead Grandparents’ and Friends’ Day, embrace a multitude of Peer Leadership opportunities, and apply for many Round Square leadership conferences and IDEALS group committees.

In addition, students in Year 5 design and lead their own community service project, for the benefit of our local community.

TRANSITIONING TO MIDDLE SCHOOL

The transition to Year 6 in Middle School begins early. Year 5 students spend time on the Penquite Campus regularly throughout the year.

The Year 6 Step Up program, held in Term Four, sees Year 5 immersed in Middle School, ready to begin the next stage of their learning.
