Buddies Year 6 students spent time

- Mrs Ferguson
Teacher PD Adventist
Schools Victoria
Education
Director, Mr
Brian Mercer,
conducted a
professional
development
session for all
teachers on Student Voice. To have a ‘voice’, students
become active participants in meaningful discussions
about what and how they learn. They can give input and
suggestions which are actively sought by the school
community. Three parts to having a voice include:
1. sharing genuine ideas and thoughts in a trusting and
respectful way
2. offering realistic suggestions for the good of everyone
3. accepting responsibility for what you suggest AND what
needs to be done.

Technology Year 7 students have
started on some
interesting projects
under the instruction
of Mr Howard and
Mr Ridley.
