The Pinnacle Colleges M&C
Commitment

Measure

We measure our success via student input/assessment— a slick, non time consuming system.

Communicate

We use the measured data to communicate the “student climate” via a regular PRC—”Principals’ Report Card” to students and parents.

Leadership Development

“Leadership is not a position or a title, it is an action and example.”

(Author Unknown)

At Pinnacle Rynfield we endeavour to inspire our students to recognize their own ability to lead through positive action. At the same time we aim to identify the positive attributes in our students that hint at their instinctive ability to mentor and guide their peers towards becoming fully involved and committed members of our student community.

There are many leadership roles in which our students can participate and thrive. These include Classroom Assistants, Sports & Cultural Captains, Grade 7 Prefects, Student Representatives and Grade 12 Prefects.

At Grade 12, we celebrate the leadership achievements of our students by appointing the following Pinnacle Leadership positions:

Head Student/s

Deputy Head Student/s

Head of Student Representative Council

“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.”

(John Quincy Adams)

Uniforms

The School is blessed to have a beautiful uniform which is compulsory for all Students from Grade 000 – 12.

Each of the phases though, has a completely age-appropriate uniform that is suited to the nature of the classroom activities in which the children participate. From the more relaxed sports uniform and tracksuit of the Pre-Primary children, to the formal uniform as worn by the Grade 11 and 12 Students, there is a well thought out uniform requirement for each phase.

The Pinnacle College Rynfield School Uniform is branded and is currently available from Rynfield Drapers. A full list of Uniform and Dress Code regulations is available from the office.
