Next week we’ll host the team from illuminate Education in Moree for the primary illuminate challenge, bringing together bright minds in years 5 & 6 from the across the LGA. Like the hugely successful secondary challenge the students will work through a community based challenge, developing confident, creative and capable young people, with a focus on four core skills, communication, understanding, problem solving and working smarter. The students would love your feedback, we still have some spaces for community members to help mentor or judge this challenge, it’s just an hour or so over the week. Please reach out to Kirsty if you’re available to help. Please note a valid WWCC is required.
