From the Head of Junior School
Girls in leadership is something I am very passionate about. Today, I am very proud to share the incredible achievements and growth of our Year 6 leaders.
These girls have truly shone as great examples of leadership, and I am thrilled to highlight the fantastic work they have accomplished this year.
At the heart of this success is our Year 6 Leadership Programme, led by myself and our dedicated Year 6 teacher, Betsy Ryan. One of the core principles guiding our programme is the belief that every Year 6 girl possesses leadership potential, and we are committed to ensuring that all our girls not only have leadership roles but also receive the training needed to excel in them.
Throughout the year, our Year 6 leaders have taken on a myriad of responsibilities, showcasing their dedication and enthusiasm. From planning and organising activities for both small and large groups of Junior Schoolers to managing essential tasks like wet day classroom duties and overseeing recycling bins, their impact has been noticed by all.
But their leadership extends beyond these day-to-day tasks. Our Year 6 girls have also played pivotal roles in organising and participating in various service activities, such as the Tactix Kindness Collection Pyjama Drive. Their commitment to making a positive impact on our community is great to see.
What sets our programme apart is the diverse range of experiences our girls engage in. From attending Enviroschools workshops to running House Day activities and leading chapels and assemblies, they have embraced every opportunity for growth.
The growth we have witnessed in our Year 6 girls is so impressive.. Their communication skills, organisational skills problem-solving abilities, and creative thinking have all flourished over the course of the year. We are immensely proud of the young leaders they have become.
These exceptional Year 6 leaders have not only enriched the life of the Junior School but have also become incredible role models for our younger learners. The bond they share with their “little sisters” is so lovely to see, and the positive influence they've had is immeasurable.
As we celebrate the success of our Year 6 Leadership Programme, we extend our gratitude to the girls for their invaluable contributions. They have truly made a lasting impact.
We are incredibly proud of the leadership programme we have cultivated in Year 6. It provides exciting challenges for our girls in their final year in the Junior School and sets the stage for their continued success in the years to come.
We are excited to watch these young leaders continue to grow as they move into the Middle School.
