Back-to-back success at the Junior Ethics Olympiad

We are delighted to announce that our Year 6 Ethics Olympiad team has once again achieved outstanding success, securing gold at the 2025 Junior Ethics Olympiad. This marks the second consecutive year that our students have earned top honours in this prestigious international competition.

This year’s event brought together schools from across Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong. Remarkably, our Year 6 team were the only representatives from Tasmania, making their achievement all the more commendable.

Since Term 1, the students have been diligently preparing for the Olympiad, engaging with complex ethical issues and refining their skills in critical thinking, collaboration and respectful discourse. One of the team’s most thought-provoking cases involved a debate on the use of tracking software on school computers, weighing the importance of student safety against the right to privacy.

The Ethics Olympiad provides a valuable platform for young learners to explore moral reasoning and ethical decision-making in a structured and intellectually stimulating environment. Our students demonstrated exceptional insight, maturity and teamwork throughout the competition.

Congratulations to the team on their outstanding achievement, and sincere thanks to Mrs Jenny Noble for her dedicated coaching and support throughout their journey.
