SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY

Year 10 University Experience

On Friday 28th July, we visited Swinburne University to learn about some special courses in the University.

At about 8:30 in the morning, our ELC class gathered with students in Year 10. We then got on the bus to go to Swinburne University. The environment of the University was every nice. There were many different teaching buildings and fully functional classrooms. There were also many kinds of plants in the University grounds. After we arrived in the main hall, we were put into groups and then we started the day's lessons.

The first lesson we attended was an IT lesson where we learnt how to use Photoshop to make changes to pictures. I think it helped me a lot because I learnt how to draw pictures on my computer. The second lesson was an engineering lesson. We followed the instructions to build a model car. It was very difficult for me. I could not finish building the model car but I loved the process of making it. In the last class we learnt about horticulture. We all got a plant to take home from the lesson.

It was a busy day. We all felt happy that we had had such an interesting day.
