2. The program will include 4 leadership days at Rumbalara EEC (or other location) to work with students.
3. Each school will also have a follow up day each term- each REEC teacher to allocate this time - half day for each school
4. EOI distributed to schools early Term 1, 2021. EOI will include some draft ideas of a project. Principals and teachers are asked to identify up to 4 students within their school that may be suitable to participate in this program. Students may then submit an Expression of Interest – this must include approval from their parent / guardian and also the school.
5. Skills taught will be how to implement a leadership initiative, run meetings, goal setting, action plans and milestones and the knowledge needed to tackle the issue
