Here's a Woodies Wrap on Leadership Camp 2025

Written by Porscha (Year 6)

Leadership is a very important skill to have and I think that camp definitely helped to show me what leadership is really about .

Leadership is something everyone should show and I believe I have developed a much better understanding of leadership. Leadership isn't just about being the boss or to be in control, leadership is about being a true role model and showing people the right way to treat everyone and everything. At camp lots of leadership was shown by everyone and you could just tell how different everyone was acting, for example everyone was including everyone whether boy or girl and everyone was respecting people's boundaries. At camp I also got to know lots of people better and I got the chance to actually sit down with people and just talk to them.

Overall I had an amazing time at camp and have learnt lots about leadership. I believe that the main expectations of a leader areā€¦

Honesty: always telling the truth

Empathy: understanding people's feeling and emotions

Encouragement: encouraging other to keep on trying and not to give up

Communication: letting people talk and always listening to them

And the most important one is always being yourself, don't change yourself for others. If they won't accept you as you are then they are not true leaders because leaders include everyone.

Thank you so much teachers for letting year six go on this amazing journey and helping us understand the true meaning of leadership.
