Learning Observed

Kavisha & Anjli collaborated together to provide a wonderful and inspirational component to the ‘Leadership Experience’ as a long awaited follow up to the NYLD that all the Year 6s attended in Term 2.  The girls co-constructed a presentation and sand the song ‘Crash’ (see their slides in the Leadership Experience presentation).  They sparked the curiosity of the crowd with the strong message of ‘be yourself’.  Kavisha and Anjli did extra research and learning about Jamie so they could create a more honest picture of what she stood for. The learners loved watching the girls sing.  Practicing their public speaking, writing, presenting and leadership was what they did while the audience was inspired by Jamie McDell’s message .
