LEADERSHIP CAMPS

Our leadership program takes students on a journey of self-discovery as students learn about themselves and how to effectively interact with others.

The program introduces students to 6 different Character Strengths that have been developed from the concepts associated with positive psychology and the Australian Curriculum. Students will be given an opportunity to connect with their Character Strengths by going through a process of self-reflection and identifying their personal values.

By understanding these values and establishing a greater depth of self-awareness, students will work on building their confidence to utilise their Character Strengths in a range of different activities that challenge them in group settings and aim to take them out of their comfort zone.

SPORT DEVELOPMENT CAMPS

Our Sport Development program encourages students to adopt a high-performance mentality by exposing them to the 6 ‘off field’ focus areas that make up the ‘ME’ Student Athlete Framework.

Our expert team of teachers deliver a range of fitness-based and team-building activities across our world-class sporting facilities. While participating in these challenging sessions, students are led on reflections that emphasise the importance of a positive MINDSET and build their understanding of the power of their influence through their output and how they allocate their ENERGY.

A Sport Development camp at RBSLEC is also a great opportunity to take students into a high-performance environment to establish or reinforce the cultural pillars that underpin successful school-based sporting programs.
