Local Learning Project with Orbost PS Print

Today was LLP day. LLP (Local Learning Project) is where all the students are grouped into 3 or 4 and make a project that you later on present to a group of primary school kids. You were given a selection of topics, some of them were bush tucker, surfing safety, indigenous culture, marine life and health and fitness. Today the Orbost Primary School’s year 5’s and 6’s came and took part in our projects. It was an interesting day to be student leaders since we had to be the leaders not only of our peers but also the kids as well. The kids seem to have enjoyed themselves and gave some great feedback about how we went. Towards the end Jin and Cam entertained the kids by demonstrating a few “magnificent, fabulous, awesome” magic tricks! Needless to say they were pretty shocked (in a good way!)

In the evening we had a guest speaker come in called David Tatnall. David is a very talented, Victorian photographer. He showed us some of his work and gave us some advice about how to use lighting in photos. Over the next couple of days we’ll be having classes with him using the SLR cameras that the school owns. Hopefully we’ll get some good shots!
