00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:03.440
Welcome to the Middle School.

2
00:00:03.440 --> 00:00:06.080
An important feature of our Middle
School is the close knit community

3
00:00:06.080 --> 00:00:07.120
and the people in it.

4
00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:09.840
We really aim to nurture the
character of our students.

5
00:00:09.840 --> 00:00:14.800
Focusing on our school values of kindness,
courage, humility, and respect.

6
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:18.000
We understand that moving from a
primary setting to a secondary

7
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.840
setting can be really challenging
for young people.

8
00:00:20.840 --> 00:00:23.680
We aim to provide an inclusive
environment where they feel safe

9
00:00:23.680 --> 00:00:26.680
and supported.

10
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:30.640
As our Middle School is Year 6
through to Year 8, we understand

11
00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:33.840
the challenges and the unknown
that the Year 6 students face.

12
00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:37.800
Our pastoral team provides
a really supportive environment

13
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.280
so that they feel safe and valued.

14
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:41.520
Pastoral care is something

15
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:44.520
that every student receives
every day from every teacher.

16
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:47.760
Our Middle School model is
age and stage appropriate

17
00:00:47.760 --> 00:00:51.280
so all our students can embrace the
opportunities presented to them

18
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:53.520
and develop to be their best.

19
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:56.880
Since coming to Hutchins,
I’ve made heaps of new friends

20
00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:01.080
and all the teachers are just
so nice and easy to talk to.

21
00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:05.760
The teachers are really nice because
they always want you to ask them for help.

22
00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:09.920
I usually find that by the end of Year 8,
our students are ready to move on.

23
00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:13.440
They’ve embraced all the opportunities
we’ve provided them with

24
00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:15.560
and they’re ready to
take on new adventures

25
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:17.120
and what lies beyond our Middle School.
