Head of Secondary

Mr Peter McLellan | Head of Secondary 

We are introducing a new program into the Secondary School, known as the Living in Fullness Everyday Recognition Program or for short, the LIFE Recognition Program. The goal of the program is to encourage our students to be reflectors of the Graduate Profile; core to this is to help them learn how to do life well while here at school.

It is a scheme that is designed to acknowledge students across all aspects of the Graduate Profile and student life.

The scheme incorporates academic, sport, mission, creative arts, public speaking, debating, service, community service, clubs, competitions, leadership, subject based recognition, and studentship compliments.

It will be introduced in a step-by-step approach with major recognition levels being handed out at our annual Thanksgiving and Academic Service.

Points are accumulated through all aspects of College life and students progress through different levels of recognition through their time in Secondary School. Each level must be achieved before points can be attributed to a new level. The levels are listed below, as is a preliminary points recognition table.  These can be modified and adjusted over time.  The whole program will be up on the GPCC website in the near future.

Recognition Levels

LIFE – Bronze Recognition – 100 points with a minimum of 80 points in the year of award

LIFE – Silver Recognition – 120 points with a minimum of 80 points in the year of award

LIFE – Gold Recognition – 130 points with a minimum of 100 points in the year of award

Information packs were sent home this week.  If you would like your child to be take part in this program, please sign and return the consent form included in the information pack to the office by Monday 9 May 2022. 

The consent form is a legal document and therefore must be completed and signed in BLUE or BLACK pen.

No vaccine will be given unless there is a signed consent by the parent/guardian.

Could you please speak to your child about these upcoming vaccinations.

On the day of the vaccination Mr Haines, Year 10 Advisor and class teachers will give further instructions.
