Creative Academy prepares Grade 6 learners for leadership roles
A breakfast and information morning gave parents insight into the school’s leadership policy, selection process and expectations ahead of the learners’ leadership camp.
Developing confident, responsible and inspiring young leaders starts with more than simply handing out leadership badges. It is about understanding the values, responsibilities and journey behind leadership.
Creative Academy Preparatory School recently hosted its Grade Six Leadership Camp Breakfast and Information Morning, allowing parents to learn more about the school’s leadership policy and the process of selecting its future student leaders.
Valuable insight
The session focused on explaining how the school’s leadership policy works, the criteria involved and the procedures followed when identifying and appointing learners to leadership positions ahead of the weekend’s leadership camp.
According to the school, the gathering provided parents with valuable insight, clarity and transparency, ensuring they understood the principles behind developing and appointing student leaders.
Words of wisdom
A special highlight was hearing from the school’s current head girl and head boy, who shared their personal leadership experiences with the parents and aspiring young leaders.
They also offered words of wisdom and practical advice to the Grade Six learners as they prepared to embark on their own leadership journeys.
The opportunity allowed future leaders to gain insight from learners who have already experienced the responsibilities and expectations that come with leadership.
The school also extended its appreciation to Café at Creative for providing the delicious breakfast spread and helping make the occasion extra special.
As the Grade Six learners prepared for their leadership camp, the morning served as an important step in helping parents and learners understand the journey towards becoming responsible and inspiring role models within their school community.
