Being Bold into the Future at St John’s Campus
4 Sept 2025
Dear St John's Campus Families
At St John’s Campus, we are committed to being bold into the future by providing students with opportunities to thrive, explore and pursue their passions. Guided by our vision for a diverse, enriching and high-quality education, we are excited to announce the expansion of enrichment programs in 2026.
A dedicated STEM enrichment program will launch next year, building on the success of 2025 initiatives such as the Young Engineers Lego Club, ICAS and other mathematics competitions, and the Oliphant Science Awards. Students will also benefit from access to the Concordia Campus science, design, technology and engineering facilities, ensuring hands-on, future-focused learning.
We are also planning to strengthen our literacy enrichment opportunities, following the success of activities such as the 'Write a Book in a Day' competition, our thriving debating teams, and poetry competitions. This program will further strengthen our culture of creativity, critical thinking and communication.
In addition, we will continue to embed entrepreneurial skills across the curriculum, highlighted by initiatives such as the Year 5 Market Stall, which give students the confidence to innovate, collaborate and take initiative.
These new initiatives will complement our already strong programs in Sport, Music and Dance, ensuring every student can engage in areas of strength and passion.
We know that enrichment experiences like these not only extend academic learning but also nurture students’ sense of belonging, wellbeing and confidence—empowering them to step boldly into the future.
Kind regards
Paul Bannister
Principal – St John's Campus
