A Barbreck girl is an ambassador for herself, her family, her school, and her community. She sees herself as: 

• as a driver of initiatives that benefit others 
• a leader who practises servant leadership 
• a voice for others 
• a person who is growing in skill and knowledge 
• an organiser and manager of events supporting their School and community 
• a part of a team working towards common goals.

These characteristics have been developed into our Barbreck Years 5 and 6 Ambassador Program to develop important life-skills in our Junior School student leaders.  

This Program is not part of the Australian Curriculum, rather it is a bespoke value-added program for our St Catherine’s girls.  

The Program is implemented across Years 5 and 6, with skills increasing in complexity and/or scope across two years. Students undertake one period per week as well as involvement in lunchtime participation and whole-day involvement in event activities benefiting and including all our Barbreck girls.  

The basis of this Program is born from knowing our students. We know our Year 5 and 6 girls: 

• Are community minded
• Want to be involved in their School  
• Want to provide a voice in the decision making of their School community 
• Are capable individuals who, together as a team, can achieve extraordinary outcomes. 

The Modules the girls will undertake are set out below

We look forward to providing our 2025 Years 5 and 6 students with their Ambassador Program material in the new year and watching them flourish as confident ambassadors.
