GRIP LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
By Gus and Lachlan
On Monday morning, the Year 6s caught the train into the city at 8:00 in the morning. We got off at Southern Cross Station and went to the Melbourne Convention Centre for a leadership conference.
The event was held in a massive auditorium with 4000 people and 300 schools. We sat in our seats and waited for the magic to happen. In each session, we learned about the major things about leadership, the sacrifices, the major accomplishments a leader makes and how they can change the school. We also had a couple of games and even TRIVIA! WHAT! We learnt about the roles of a leader and what they do to make the school a better place. We brainstormed ideas in our little leadership booklet about how we could help make positive changes to our school.
Then, on the way back we walked to Southern Cross in the heat. We were back at Moorabbin Station by 3pm, some people were picked up, but others had to walk back in the heat. On the whole the experience was fun and a great learning experience for everyone. We found it enjoyable and exciting.
