Our Year 7 students have settled in well, forming new friendships and building a strong sense of belonging.
A highlight of the term was Year 7 Camp, an important step in each student鈥檚 transition to secondary school. Across three days, students built confidence, strengthened friendships and embraced new challenges. It was especially pleasing to see boys support one another, show resilience and step up with quiet leadership.
The camp has set a strong foundation for a connected and confident cohort.
Through GROW, students have also been introduced to our De La DNA, building an understanding of the College鈥檚 values, the story of our Founder, and what it means to be an effective learner at 有爱爱. This is complemented by a strong focus on mental health and wellbeing.
In Term 2, students will engage with programs such as Toolbox and Elephant Ed, supporting key areas of personal development including respect, relationships and online safety.
