Kickstart Conference
Held early in Term 1, the Kickstart Conference invites students and Home Tutors to Charleville for a week of intensive workshops focused on learning and skill development across a range of areas.
Home Tutors participate in sessions designed to build networks and deepen their understanding of the curriculum and teaching strategies. These sessions support them in their important role in the schoolroom.
Students attend daily and work with their class teacher as well as external facilitators. These experiences often provide access to learning opportunities that may not be available in their home environment.
Students do not stay overnight during the week. Instead, parents or Home Tutors stay in town with them and return each day for the scheduled sessions.
Minischool
Minischool takes place in early Term 4 and provides a valuable opportunity for students and teachers to work together in person in a classroom-style setting. All Prep to Year 6 students attend and are taught by their class teacher for four days of face-to-face learning.
Students stay in Charleville for the week, with accommodation and activities based at the Charleville Racecourse Complex. During the day, students participate in classroom learning, group challenges, team sports and swimming lessons delivered by trained instructors.
Evening activities are designed to be fun and engaging, helping students build friendships and confidence. These may include a disco, games night, movie night or excursions to local attractions.
Whole School Muster
Held in Term 2, Whole School Muster Week brings students, families and staff together in Charleville for a week of face-to-face learning, connection and school spirit.
Students work with their teachers, participate in group activities, and take part in wellbeing, cultural and team-building sessions.
The week concludes with our Sports Muster (athletics carnival), where students proudly represent their house in a range of track and field events.
Whole School Muster Week is a highlight of the year and strengthens connections across our school community.
Home Visits
Home Visits are offered as a support service for students, families and Home Tutors. They are usually conducted by the class teacher and the Parent Liaison Officer and are arranged based on individual needs.
These visits provide an opportunity for teachers to offer tailored support in areas such as teaching strategies, classroom routines and behaviour management. Students are often proud to show their schoolroom and home, and enjoy sharing their way of life with their teacher.
End of Year Events
At the end of each school year, we host a series of events to celebrate student achievement and bring our school community together.
The week begins with the Year 6 and Year 10 Celebration Dinner, offering students, families and teachers a meaningful opportunity to reflect on their schooling journey and mark the end of a significant chapter.
This is followed by our Swim Muster, a fun carnival where students come together to participate in water-based events and show their house spirit.
Next is the Whole School Concert, where students showcase their talents through performances and presentations, creating a joyful and memorable experience for everyone.
The week concludes with our formal Speech and Awards Day in Charleville, where we recognise academic, sporting and community achievements across all year levels.
