Project Rockit
“Each one of us has the power to challenge bullying, even in the smallest and simplest ways.”
On Monday 12 August, Grade 5 and 6 students will be taking part in Project Rockit incursion on bullying.
The learning outcomes of the program are as follows:
1. Students have gained a shared understanding of what bullying is and demonstrated their ability to identify various (cyber)bullying situation.
2. Students have grown insight into the emotional impacts for peers who are routinely excluded, bullied or discriminated against.
3. Students have collectively generated a kit of strategies to challenge (cyber)bullying and support those targeted.
The workshops are youth-driven and evidence-based, with all learning outcomes aligned to the Victorian Curriculum
Bike Education
We have now successfully completed 3 weeks of Bike Ed. After focusing in on rider safety, and navigate obsitcals at low speeds, students have been learning and refining their skills by focusing on:
- The road rules affecting bike riders.
- Understands what to do when faced with a variety of intersections.
- Can pick safe gaps in traffic with other bike riders and road users.
It was wonderful to see 60 students riding around makeshift intersections, giving hand signals and controlling their bicycle.
