Year 6

This is an exciting time for our girls as they prepare for the move into the Senior Years. Throughout the year they attend numerous events and mix with the senior girls and take part in a Transition Assembly, culminating in a guard of honour as they move into the Marjorie Lyon House.

As part of the curriculum, our state and national governing processes are explored and are supported by a visit to Parliament House. The democratic process is put into practice as our girls choose their leaders from among themselves. They are encouraged to put themselves forward for leadership opportunities, such as becoming a House Captain or a member of the Student Representative Council.

More languages are introduced into the academic curriculum. Our girls take a term's tuition in each of German, French, Japanese, and Chinese.

Continuing the Wellbeing Curriculum, which complements our rigorous academic curriculum, by encompassing well-being, health and positive psychology, our girls take on their biggest adventure – a four-day camping experience where they have to cook their own food and take part in a plethora of fun and exciting Outdoor and Environmental Education challenges.

Year 6 is a year of transition and change.
