Fun filled days + no sleep = LEADERSHIP CAMP!
Wow! What an amazing three days. Day one saw 65 year 7 and 8 students climb Mount Te Aroha. This journey, completed in three groups took from 4 hours (school gate to mountain and back) to 7 hours. Every student achieved their goal. Persistance, support, encouragement and large amount of perspiration! Day two each group completed eight rotations. These rotations concentrated on conflict resolution, team building, decision making and co operation. The night finished with no ball rugby a swim and the inaugural quiz night. Day three everyone was inspired by our range of guest speakers Tony Hope, Matthew Cooper and Dave Mac Calman spoke about leadership. Powerful messages emerged from the talks:

Hello Stuart -
Thought I'd comment on your blog page and show you that I do look at it - LOL!
Good to see you are being keep busy (and fit!). The photos are great, nice to see the familiar faces. I like that Teal and Sara came to speak to the kids - keep that TAC link going :)
Hey - Rhys and Thomas have set up a blog (no postings yet) on BlogSpot www.rhysandthomasduncan.blogspot.com - you think that site will be OK, I see you are using a different one. What do I do now as far as getting Stanley Ave students to access it - maybe through the Moodle site? Technical advice please!!!
Keep up with the great work - I hear we are getting some laptops :))
