Genazzano named Finalist in the Australian Education Awards 2019
2 July 2019
We are very proud to announce that for the second year running, Genazzano’s Co-curricular Program has been named as a finalist in the Australian Education Awards for 2019 in the category of Best Co-curricular Program.
Our College is home to an outstanding Co-curricular Program and a leader in co-curricular opportunities for girls, offering over 130 activities each semester. Activities cover the breadth of Music, the Arts, Sport, Technology, Debating, Public Speaking, Language Immersion, Social Justice, Leadership and many student interest activities, such as archaeology.
Our Co-curricular Program adds richness to student life and encourages the development of our students. With encouragement to develop their talents and skills, our students grow both as an individual and as a team player. The program helps them to form friendships, improves confidence and self-discipline and enriches the Genazzano experience through a strong sense of community.
The benefits of the program go beyond what might be expected, says Principal Karen Jebb. “We want our students to discover their passions,” she says. “Educational offerings at Genazzano give our students both breadth and depth and our Co-curricular Program adds an extra dimension to these – giving our students multiple options in terms of career choices and offering students opportunities to do what they love and what makes them happy”.
