Growing Resilient, Reliable, Capable, Caring Adults

On Tuesday, our Year 9 cohort took their first steps into the ‘Into Adulthood’ Programme, a transformative initiative delivered in partnership between Chisholm Catholic College and AdventureWorks WA.

Throughout a dedicated two-period session, students were encouraged to reflect on some profound questions: “Who do I want to become?” and “How do I want to present myself in my community as a young adult?” These thought-provoking discussions marked the beginning of their journey towards self-discovery and personal growth—one that we, as a school community, are committed to supporting throughout 2025.

A special moment of the day was the presentation of the Chisholm ‘Into Adulthood’ Badge to each student by their Pastoral Care Advisor, symbolising their official entry into the Programme. Students are invited to wear their badges with pride as a reminder of their commitment to this journey.

A heartfelt thank you to our Year 9 students for embracing the experience so positively, as well as to our dedicated Pastoral Care Advisors and AdventureWorks facilitators for guiding and supporting them through this meaningful first step. We look forward to witnessing their continued growth in the months ahead!
