Well what would you know, after a full day of restricted school internet, I
come back home to a magically working Maven which builds on 1.6 :D . Thanks
for your help guys :)

Tried it and even added the java 1.6 library but as soon as I hit update

What version of m2e are you using? Since m2e 1.1, if you start with no
pom.xml and right-click on your eclipse project and Configure...>Convert to
Maven..., the generated pom.xml is supposed to contain the
maven-compiler-plugin configuration matching your Eclipse JDT settings.
If you already have a pom.xml, then, no settings conversion is done, m2e
uses the already existing pom and you must do as Greg said.
