Loreto Toorak ProgramsTerm 4
Term 4 brings the start of warmer weather and another series of Programs with which students can engage to conclude the year.
This year we have seen fantastic participation and involvement across all of our programs. As we enter Term 4, we encourage all students to reflect on their goals in the Programs area to ensure they complete 2022 having had a new experience; noting there is still time to encounter a new opportunity. We also encourage families to reflect with their child on how many stars of involvement they have completed this year and what they could consider for 2023 to support balance and growth.
As we move towards the conclusion of 2022, we invite all families to celebrate their child’s participation and commitment to programs by attending our various ‘Celebrations of’ afternoons and evenings (see below). This year, we have witnessed extraordinary growth and outcomes across Programs. all of which deserve recognition by the School community. We invite you to celebrate with us on the following dates:

Star System
Participation through Programs is an excellent way to meet new people, develop skills and to extend experiences. We believe it is important for all young people to have balance across Academics and Programs. Therefore, students and parents are encouraged to discuss intended commitments at the start of each term, aiming for five stars of participation across three areas (for example Music, Sport and Performing Arts). For students to maintain positive wellbeing, we recommend no more than six stars per term.
The Star System is intended to support student wellbeing and does not influence or contribute to our awards system. Depending on the level of commitment required each week, each Program has been allocated a star rating that can be seen on the following pages.
Some Programs do not have a star allocation—i.e., House activities—as they may only occur on one occasion. Students are encouraged to contribute in as many of these Programs as possible.
