LEAP Week
In Week 6, we celebrated LEAP week at Haileybury Pangea, encompassing explorations of Literature, Enterprise, the Arts and Politics. Led by Haileybury Pangea’s Curious Minds Coordinator Alysia Degorski and Haileybury’s Head of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Damien Meunier, students were invited to participate in a wide variety of hands-on activities including student versus teacher debates, a Model United Nations forum, creating digital artworks, and the very popular Sock Tank competition. It was a colourful and creative week, with fantastic contributions from both students and staff.
National Reconciliation Week
At Haileybury Pangea, students participated in a range of learning experiences to develop their understanding of the past, present and future of reconciliation in Australia, and the days of significance that mark the beginning and end of National Reconciliation Week. Students engaged in reflection and discussion through both formal activities, such as the National Reconciliation Week Assembly, and through group activities such as the Yarning Circle for Years 11 and 12 students.
Students and staff also participated in a Connection to Country walk, and engaged in learning about the traditional owners of the area in which they live. This was represented through an interactive map, showing the geographical reach of Pangea and the diversity of Indigenous cultures across Australia. We thank all staff and students who led and participated in activities over the week.
