Time to Shine

The purpose of the Time to SHINE (Strategy Helping to Innovate and Nurture Excellence) Extension Program is to encourage Year 6 students from all Mount Isa schools to participate in secondary school experiences in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM). Students will be encouraged to develop problem solving skills and higher order thinking. The 2 x 4 week Gifted and Talented program is particularly designed to appeal to higher achieving students but all abilities are welcome. The program will provide interactive ‘hands-on’ activities for students to make them excited about learning. Activities will promote student inquiry, collaboration, innovation and creativity.

Arrow Program

The ARROW program takes place one afternoon per week (in weeks 3 - 8) of Term 2 and 3 each year. This program is designed to not only transition students from primary to secondary schooling, but to further develop numeracy and literacy skills in our high achieving students. ARROW is available to Year 6 students from Saint Kieran’s and Saint Joseph’s, and attendees are selected by their schools.

Academic Support Program

The academic support program is open to students on Tuesday - Friday afternoon from 3pm - 4pm. During this time, students can work on homework and assessment in the College Library, with the support of supervising teachers. The Academic Support Program is available in weeks 2 - 9 every term.
