'This is is a forward-thinking, action-driven approach to education that embodies our core values and prepares students for leadership in an ever-changing world and success in their VCE years and beyond.'

Richard Owens, Woodleigh Institute

Adolescence is a time of rapid growth and independence. For Year 10 students, it is a defining moment that shapes their future. 

Woodleigh's Regenerative Futures Program (RFP) guides students on this journey and prepares them for the challenges of VCE and life beyond school. Grounded in the three R's—respect for self, others, and the environment—we empower students to impact the world around them positively.   

Through real-world experiences and project-based learning, the RFP equips students with a can-do mindset, enabling them to approach VCE and future challenges with fresh perspectives. In 2025, Woodleigh's Year 10 program fully embraces regeneration, going beyond sustaining teh status quo and adding more to the world than we take. It is a forward-thinking, action-driven approach to education that embodies our core values and prepares students for leadership in an ever-changing world and success in their VCE years and beyond.

 

 

In our ever-changing world, Woodleigh believes that a Regenerative culture is essential. 

But what does this mean? Highlighted by educational practices it is a systemic transformation toward restorative, healing and regenerative practices in all fields of work and life. This aligns deliberately with Woodleigh's Year 10 Regenerative Futures Program (RFP), aimed at fostering critical and creative thinking with collaboration among students in a regenerative environment.

By nurturing these qualities throughout year-long Regenerative Futures Program, we empower our students to become forward-thinking leaders capable of positively impacting society and addressing the challenges of tomorrow, together.
