Developing Future Leaders


Leadership Characteristics

At Aranda Primary School training in leadership begins in the classroom and develops as students progress through the school. It involves formal leadership programs and practical leadership experiences that aim at creating an environment that fosters growth and inclusivity. The approach recognises that students can be leaders across many different areas, and that leadership skills learned in primary school can lay the foundations for future leadership opportunities.
