LIKE MINDS

LIKE MINDS

Like Minds is Korumburra Secondary College’s signature Extension and Enrichment program and had another fantastic year in 2023.

In class, all students were challenged to really stretch themselves with their learning, with students regularly being challenged to apply their knowledge in hands-on and immersive activities. As part of learning in Humanities, students ran a casual-clothes day for the whole school, and also worked with our VM students to put together a Marketplace. As part of this activity students explored a range of business models and marketing strategies. In October, as part of a Biology unit in Science, students created an interactive Body Systems Museum which was then opened to the public one afternoon after school.

Our Like Minds students also participate in our unique Enterprise program. This includes activities designed to help students develop and demonstrate the eight Enterprise Capabilities. Throughout this year our students produced 4 editions of The Burra Flyer, enjoyed hands-on activities at GTAC and Gippsland Technical School, completed the AI for Good and Write a Book in a Day challenges and participated in mini-conference days. Our students also had the opportunity to participate in the official opening of the Korumburra Community Hub in November this year.
