We had a mixture of camp activities like go karts and air rifles, as well as workshops around leadership values. We first practiced 'following the leader' and working as a team, before we learnt about becoming leaders ourselves. We considered the things that we say (first to ourselves, then towards others) and things that we do to lead effectively.
We used the metaphor of the awhi rito - when we are young we are the centre of the awhi rito, with our teachers, families and caregivers looking after us as the outer leaves. As we grow older, take more responsibility and lead we move further away from the centre.
Throughout the week more and more students stepped up to show their leadership. It was amazing to see everyones confidence grow and we all learnt something new about each other.

I love that you made a great video for this post, which talks about your camp. Who was that in the first go-kart? They were crazy fast, and might get booked for their enthusiasm ≧◡≦. Did any of the student get a bullseye during archery or rifles? You guys must be truley exhausted.

Hey PES, my name is Parwin and I am a year 8 from Yaldhurst Model School. I really liked your video especially the intro because it was really creative and unique. I really liked the music in the background and the photos and videos. From the watching the video, you could tell that you guys had loads of fun! When I went on camp to Living Springs, we did some of the same things like trampolining, archery and much more. I wish there was something like that so that our school could go to something like that. What did you enjoy the most? Awesome work!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your next posts,
Parwin
