We have a number of leadership programs for Secondary schools, including one day, two day and fully facilitated camp options.
IMPACT LEADERSHIP (1 OR 2 DAY TRAINING)
"Impact leadership" is a one or two day workshop, best suited for your whole year 8 or year 9 cohort. High energy, high impact, and it calls upon every student to contribute through their influence, strengths and actions.
SINGLE DAY OUTLINE
· Everyday Leadership- Leadership is influence.
· The Epic Race- facilitated outdoor team race event (using our A.S.P.I.R.E. framework)

LEADING FROM THE FRONT (1 DAY WORKSHOP)
"Leading from the front" is a single day workshop designed for formal leaders at the end of year 8, or at the beginning of year 9. It provides support to students who have been entrusted with the responsibility of leading the Junior Secondary school in a formal way.
OVER 3 SESSIONS, STUDENTS WILL JOURNEY THROUGH 3 POWERFUL TOPICS:
· Leaving a Legacy (Answering the Call, Casting the Vision).

STUDENT FEEDBACK
"Through this experience, I have learned about time management, having a deadline to complete tasks, organising meetings, working in teams, communicating ideas to a group of people, and taking responsibility- having the success or failure of this project potentially lie in your team’s hands." - Student Feedback
"Thank you so much for everything that you’ve done to make our project a success. We really did learn a lot from this, and actually way more than expected. Now that I look back at our journey, it was probably one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. Also, I would really recommend younger students to be a part of this program – you get to see the world through the eyes of a leader!"- Student Feedback
"I strongly believe that this experience will greatly help with my communication skills in team assignments. It will help me become a leader of the teams and work / communicate with everyone so that we will be able to achieve the best results. I also believe that learning these skills could help other people understand how to utilise these skills to their best ability."- Student Feedback
"The information and skills I have taken out of this experience has helped in other areas too. It has helped with assignments, time management, working in teams, responsibilities, confidence and with being a leader and stepping up and helping. I have had so much fun, but I am glad to have taken some positive things out of it that can help in the future. I have learnt that if you want to achieve great things in life and succeed you have to put in hard work, be motivated, put in time and effort and give 100% because not everything comes easy." - Student Feedback
"Some personal successes that I believe I experienced was pulling the project together. I really surprised myself when I stepped up and took charge. Everyone was amazing when we worked together as a team, and it was great to be part of this experience." - Student Feedback
