Year 5 Experience Day

What is an ‘Experience Day’?

Year 5 Experience Day is all about fun and adventure!

Experience Days are an opportunity for soon-to-be high school students to have their first real experience of high school and to spend a day having fun, making new friends and exploring our campus. The aim is to leave students excited to take the next step in their educational journey, and reduce some of the anxiety which can naturally occur when students begin high school.

How do Experience Days work?

Instead of attending their regular Primary School, students participating in an Experience Day attend Faith Lutheran College for the day.

Students will spend the day with our entire campus at their disposal. With some guidance and supervision from our staff they’ll have an opportunity to play, make, create and learn as they participate in a special program of fun and engaging activities.

Parents are required to drop students at Faith in the morning (8.00am for an 8.30am start) and collect them in the afternoon (2.15pm).

Year 5 Experience Day takes place on a student free day for our students, meaning that our Year 5 guests are able to make full use of our campus facilities.

After being dropped at Faith, and welcomed, students will engage in a fun and exciting day of learning and exploration, before heading home – hopefully excited and enthusiastic about making the move to secondary school!

Benefits For Students

Our Experience Days feature a special program of fun and engaging lessons and activities which:

• encourage students to meet, engage and build relationships with their potential future classmates;
• excite students about all of the new experiences, facilites and opportunities to learn that Secondary school will bring;
• allow students to use some of our rich learning environments, not usually found in Primary Schools, such as our Industrial Design and Technology Workshop, Sports Centre and Science Laboratories.

Does Experience Day Cost Anything?

No! Year 5 Experience Day is 100% free!

All that we ask is that students interested in attending complete the registration form, and that each student arrives with a packed morning tea and lunch.
