Youth Leadership

In 2023 we will be looking at a project that students are able to work on during Term 2.  This will mean that we will work with students and schools to identify a project that is of an appropriate scale to allow students to achieve their goals. If there is sufficient interest, students may wish to continue to build their project in Term 3.

Proposal:

  1. The program will accept up to 4 students (Stage 3) from 6 schools to participate in the program. Rumbalara staff will each mentor a number of schools (4 students from each school).
  2. The program will include 2 leadership days at Rumbalara EEC (or another location) to work with students.
  3. Each school also have follow up days where a REEC teacher will work with students.
  4. EOI distributed to schools early Term 1. EOI will include some draft ideas of projects. Principals and teachers are asked to identify up to 4 students within their school who might be suited to participation in this program. Students may then submit an EOI, which must be approved by their parentguardian and also their school.
  5. Skills taught will include how to: implement a leaderhip initiative; run meetings; set goals; plan actions; monitor milestones and source knowledge to tackle identified issues.
  6. EOIs close Monday 13.03.23.
