Senior Personal Development Skills- Moussa Tiba

At the start of the 2022 school year, Moussa realised that he needed to work hard to improve his learning. From that point on, he demonstrated extraordinary growth over a short period of time. Moreover, he realised he possessed natural leadership qualities with which he could help his peers and wider community.

Moussa led from the front, stepping up and taking responsibility for his learning, as well as inspiring and supporting the learning of others. In the case of a group project, Moussa not only completed his own work, but took on additional tasks to ensure the project was delivered on time and at a high level. 

Moussa grew his capacity to reflect on feedback and strove to do his best both in the classroom and as a leader and advocate of an applied lerning model at school. He presented to all year 10 students about the new VCE VM and explained the importance, value and commitment required when applying for this course of study. He responded to questions about studying a dual qualification and the skills required to do this effectively.

During the final class presentation to stakeholders, Moussa happily stepped in at a moment's notice to cover an unexpected absence. He presented on their behalf in front of the leadership team and his peers without hesistation, impressing school staff greatly. Through hard work and selflessness, Moussa has earned the pride and respect of his school community.
