Pod 3 is the learning community centre for the year 6-8 students.

This learning environment is one that supports students who are developing into young adolescents. It does so by providing a variety of experiences and learning opportunities that cater for young people who are journeying into an ever changing and challenging world. It triggers curiosity and life long learning.

The students are encouraged to engage with curriculum that is relevant and at point of need, that exposes them to global issues and helps them develop into responsible citizens. The. students are given opportunities to express their student voice and take on leadership roles. Inquiry based topics allow for independent learning that contains student choice and connects the students’ learning to real life situations.

Pod 3 provides even transition entrance and exit points for students currently at the school and for new students. Students’ strengths, interests and achievements are tracked through ILP’s and goals are devised with students to enhance student outcomes. Pod 3 is an integral component of Yuille Park Community College as students become school leaders and are able to put into practise skills and values they have acquired in previous years.
