It is Redhill Middle School’s aim to grow the leaders of tomorrow. With this in mind, we aim to nurture leadership potential in every student. The Middle School offers leadership in Service Committees in Grade 9. These committees mimic the Senior School committees to ensure a mentorship from the senior grades to the Grade 9s.
The Peer Support Committee is the main arm of the student mentor programme. This committee mentors the Grade 6s joining the Middle School to mentor them and guide them through the new journey.
The Sport and Spirit Committee works with the Grade 12 Spirit Master to ensure that the spirit in Redhill is alive and that students involve themselves in the school’s activities.
The Ubuntu Committee assists the Senior School Committee to ensure that Redhill students live with the spirit of Ubuntu. They also work closely with the Centre for Dialogue and Conflict Resolution to create a means for students to learn about other cultures.
The Environmental Committee assists the Senior School Committee with raising awareness of the environment. They also arrange river clean-ups and raise funds for associations that help keep the environment clean.
The Interact Committee is part of the community arm of Redhill. Interact assists with drives to raise funds or awareness around the need for charity and community work.
The Visual and Performing Arts Committee assists with all cultural and art activities on Campus. This ranges from assemblies to the Redhill Arts Festival.
The research is unanimous in laying out the very distinct and unique challenges that Middle School children face in these critical developmental years.
Redhill’s focus on the social and emotional wellbeing of students underpins all that we do. This is especially key in the pivotal Middle School years when our students require support on a number of levels.
The Redhill Middle School has adopted the MYP (Middle Years Programme) to structure and inform the curriculum. As an IB World School, Redhill has already adopted the IBDP Programme in the Senior School.
