As Year 6 leaders of the school, we found our leadership day, run by facilitators from Lutheran Youth Queensland (L.Y.Q.) held last Monday, was a great opportunity to learn new leadership skills. Some of our favourite activities included Tarp Turn-over, The Death Grid and River Crossing. These activities taught us skills such as teamwork, listening skills, good communication, patience and strategising as a team. These skills could help us in our leadership roles and in future leadership roles such as in high school and our future jobs. The whole Year 6 community enjoyed and embraced this opportunity and found it a great learning experience.
We thank L.Y.Q and our School and Teachers for making this great day possible.
Year 6 Captains
For the last two weeks, Year Three has enjoyed their swimming program. They were divided up into five groups and taught a variety of valuable swimming skills, which included stroke correction, diving, kicking with kickboards and appropriate breathing techniques for the strokes learnt. The two week program has seen an improvement in their overall abilities and stamina.
