2024 has been a memorable year for everyone in Year 6. As the senior members and leaders of Barbreck, the students have embraced the challenges and excitement of their final year with enthusiasm. This year has been filled with opportunities for growth, both academically and personally, as the students prepared for their transition to secondary school.  

In the classroom, Year 6 students dove into a diverse range of topics that sparked curiosity and fostered critical thinking. Across all areas of their learning, the girls engaged in a range of independent and collaborative activities. They demonstrated remarkable resilience and adaptability, working collaboratively on projects, and participating in discussions about important topics like empathy and mindfulness. This year also saw a focus on developing leadership skills, with Year 6 students stepping up as role models for their younger peers. Hosting School events, organising weekly assemblies and working to shape their legacy as leaders, was all part of contributing to a supportive and inclusive St Catherine’s School community.  

Other highlights of the year have included trips to Golden Valley for the Years 5 and 6 Camp, the Study Tour to Canberra, and various sporting and leadership opportunities.   

Year 6 of 2024 has been a year of learning, growth, and celebration as the girls more forward in the next step of their educational journey.
