Leadership Opportunities
At St Patrick’s a range of opportunities enables students to develop leadership skills.
Year 6 students can become student leaders in a number of areas including School Captains, Mission Leaders, Media Leaders and Sport Leaders. Their duties include organising school assemblies, playground activities and school fundraising activities that support a variety of causes including Project Compassion, Catholic Mission and the St Vincent de Paul Society.
Sport and PE
Physical Education plays an important part and we actively encourage healthy minds and healthy living.
In Term 1 students in Years 3 to 6 participate in a school-based Gymnastics Program with specialist teachers.
