Year 11 Aspire
Year 11 Aspire Highlights
The Outdoor Education program culminates with the Year 11 Aspire Course, again held in the MacDonnell Ranges, west of Alice Springs, and is led by College staff and highly qualified Outdoor Education instructors.
The course focuses on communication ('Comm Talks'), leadership (theory and practice with Management Teams), and self-reflection (thorough structured daily 'Quiet Time', 48-hour solo, personal and group journals), and is particularly tailored to match the needs and maturity of Senior students about to embark on their final year of study.
The Year 11 Aspire Course is also an accredited SACE Stage 1 subject valued at 2 units, or the equivalent of a 12-month subject!
We acknowledge the Arrernte people as the traditional custodians and first educators of Mparntwe. Our school is home to students from nations all around the world. We ‘strive’ to work with and continue learning from First Nations people. We ‘seek’ to be a part of Australia’s reconciliation journey by engaging in truth-telling. We aim to ‘care’ for Country through connection and environmental education. We pay our respects to elders past and present and thank them for their care of Country and sharing of knowledge.
