Student Voice in Action!
On Wednesday 1 April, I had the opportunity, along with our student leadership team, to attend a leadership excursion at Whittlesea Tech School. The day brought together both Primary and Secondary leaders to collaborate through a hands-on Design Thinking program focused on creating positive change within our school. Working within our leadership groups, I collaborated with the Communication Action Team as well as students from different year levels. This experience allowed us to hear a variety of perspectives and work together in a supportive environment where everyone was encouraged to contribute their ideas. With guidance from the facilitators, we focused on identifying areas for improvement in our school before developing practical and meaningful solutions. This process challenged us to think critically about how communication currently works and how it could be improved to better connect students across the school. As part of the Communication team, we explored ideas such as creating a school news report or podcast to share updates and celebrate achievements. It was interesting to see how different teams approached their own focus areas, all working towards the shared goal of improving the school experience. Overall, the excursion was a valuable experience that helped strengthen my leadership skills, particularly in teamwork, communication and problem-solving. I look forward to continuing this work and applying what we learned to make a positive impact within our school community.
