Power Hour

St. Arnaud Secondary College's 'Power Hour' is an after school study session which occurs on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons from 3:15 - 4:30pm.

These study sessions involve students working in small groups with the assistance from teaching staff, support staff and volunteer community members who assist them with basic literacy and numeracy skills and general homework tasks.

The aim of this program is to increase student aspirations by assisting students who find literacy and numeracy skills challenging in addition to ensuring that students are completing their homework and assessment tasks in a comfortable and supportive environment.

Primarily the program is to spark young people’s interest in numeracy and literacy and improve their self-confidence by allowing them to experience consistent successes in short, supported activities as part of the 'Power Hour' program.
