YLAA YOUTH LEADERS CONFERENCES On the 12th & 13 th of March our Primary Leaders as well as our Secondary College Captains and several members of our SRC and Peer Support Team attended the YLAA Primary & Secondary Youth Leadership Conferences at the Melbourne Exhibition and Convention Centre. They were joined by over 1,200 student leaders from nearly 100 schools across Victoria. It was a fantastic opportunity to meet and network with other like - minded young people. Our leaders were enthralled by some incredible guest speakers including ex - AFL footballer and current Western Jets Coach, Trent Dennis - Lane; young entrepreneurs who have started businesses from scratch and inspiring young people who have overcome homelessness and adversity to become leaders in their community.
We are looking forward to working with all our young leaders to lead positive change here in The Lakes Community
“ I ’ m very excited to help the school and looking forward to being a School Captain. Firstly, a bit about me, I like soccer and playing with my sister at home. The new addition of the glass partitions through the learning street have been terrific, when walking through the Learning Street it is clear to see that students are more focussed in the classroom, it is a calmer and a more optimal environment for learning. And In addition to this, we are looking forward to the range of Lifestyles that are going to be provided for us this year. we are very lucky to have PE, Art, Dance, Drama, STEM and Digital Design with expert teachers ”. - Vishal “ I like hanging out with my friends, walking my dog, playing sports and being active. To enhance students time at recess and lunch all classes have access to their own sports equipment, this has helped students stay engaged during their time outside. Students have helped each other in the yard by telling a yard duty teacher about problems that have occurred. The Year 5s and 6’ s have enjoyed spending time on the Secondary Campus during 5/6 sport, it has been great to have a different scenery and to use the facilities. Another highlight was our Welcome Back BBQ, it was awesome to see the school community getting together to launch the start of the year ”. - Grace
We look forward to reporting to you again soon!
