Indooroopilly State High School virtual tour video transcript

Student 1: I would say value of education, and dignity and diversity.
Student 2: A supportive, very caring society.
Student 3: Culturally diverse and loving.

Tashi: Well, there's a lot of different pathways that I.B (International Baccalaureate) . can take you. So, the school here is trying to make us become caring individuals who see the world in a different perspective.

Agnes: As an Indooroopilly student, well, first of all, if you noticed, we don't wear a uniform. So that's the obvious one.

Caryse: When I first came into high school, I was very shy. I found it very hard, I had difficulty engaging in the classroom and really making my voice heard.
So when I came to Indooroopilly, I sort of, I developed a really strong sense of personal self and confidence and assertiveness that I could really make my voice heard and make sure I was getting the education I needed. And the fact that I really developed a strong personality, I think.

Heather: I think it’s a very beautiful environment for the students. It’s very multicultural and diverse, but a very compassionate school but which puts a lot of value on education, and on the individual students as well.

Caryse: From grade 8, from the beginning of high school, this school has always emphasised  really strong moral values and really community focused values, so,
our school’s values of open communication, quality learning, each student’s dignity and our community’s diversity, are really emphasised and make sure that we respect
every member of the school and the contribution they have in the community.

David: One of the main factors that helped me a lot through all the assignments, all the work in school is the English as a Second Language program. To help support me in terms of writing and in terms of grammar, and since then, my English has improved a lot.

Sam: Well, with where the school is, we’ve been able to make lots of connections with universities in the area, and even the Judith Wright Centre of Contemporary Arts,
and in my particular pathway that helped, because I was exposed to, you know, the professionals in the area and it made me really see what I want to do.
I see the teachers here as very individual, they teach every student differently, they know every student has a different path that they want to go down, and so, teaching is very tailored to the individual, instead of the whole class.
