Senior Years Report

Week 7 Update

It has been a busy and positive Week 7 in the Senior School at Macleod College.

Our Year 11 students completed the Level 3 Man Cave and Big Sister Experience workshops this week. These programs focus on developing students’ understanding of identity, respectful relationships, communication and healthy boundaries through interactive discussions and activities.

Students shared some thoughtful reflections following the sessions:

“I liked the way it was presented, getting students involved in activities while we were learning.”

“The topics covered related to a lot of people our age – conversations that we hadn’t had before.”

“It gives you a better understanding and grasp on how to deal with boundaries. The presenters’ stories gave the workshop more depth.”

We thank the facilitators for delivering engaging sessions that encouraged meaningful discussion and reflection among our students.

Week 7 also saw the Senior School representing their houses with distinction at the Athletics Carnival. It was fantastic to see such strong attendance, house spirit and participation throughout the day. A special well done to our staff who limbered up and joined in the fun for the staff vs student relay!

This is an excellent opportunity for students to explore future pathways and speak with a range of tertiary providers and industry representatives.
