Hands On Learning

This week we started our Hands on Learning Program. The program runs each Tuesday for selected students in grade 5 and 6. The program provides students with an alternative program where new skills are learnt by doing and experiencing, with a focus on gardening, cooking and small building projects. 

The four fundamental elements that build the platform for young people to grow in confidence and engage and achieve at school are:

• A place to belong
• People to belong to
• Real thing to do
• A chance to give back

This week, the first session involved getting to know each other, exploring our spaces and setting goals and focus plans.
