Grade 6 Leadership Program

A key feature of Koroit and District Primary School’s success is the active involvement in students in the life of the school.

The 2022 Leadership team consists of – School Captains, Community and Cultural Leaders, Choose Kind Leaders, Pet Zone Leaders, House Captains, Sports Captains,  Sustainability Leaders, E- Smart Leaders, and Art Leader.

As a KDPS grade 6 leader, students are supported and encouraged to;

1. Use their Voice and share ideas.

2. Contribute to teamwork.

3. Show the way and lead by example.

Students also participate in weekly leadership lessons  focusing on the following areas;

  • ‘what makes’ a good leader

  • organisational and team skills

  • encouraging and problem solving

Our School Captains attend the annual GRIP Leadership program in Geelong.

GRIP Leadership is an independent organisation that exists to train and develop leaders with a special focus on school students and the educational sector.

All Grade 6 students also have the opportunity to apply for the Leaders Congress Team each year.
