By participating in different activities throughout the day, the students experienced what good leadership entails. Reflections on relevant examples of leadership and practicing team building through communication games, observing and noticing the details lead to a deeper understanding that actions speak louder than words. Our wonderful guest speakers for the day, included Ella, Clancy and Mr Smith who shared their experiences and spoke of what inspires them as leaders and what is involved in representing the college next year. A special remembering of past student, Sam Climpson-Stewart in the memorial garden, reflecting on the opportunities we have in our lifetimes and to choose wisely how we treat one another. We don't always need to be the best or smartest, yet Sam’s story emphasises how crucial living meaningfully can positively impact others. In the afternoon students were allocated a primary class to help out in; listening to their stories, helping them colour, build and spell. It was refreshing to be reminded how people learn by spending time with the younger students. The Year 11’s had a fun day, being out and about and seeing the bigger picture of being a role model by being the best version of themselves.
