Student Achievement
13 October
Featured on the front page of the Ballarat Courier on Friday 8th October, Year 10 student Akaisha O'Keefe flourishes through adversity.
As part of the 'Shout' youth publication, Year 10 students Akaisha, Kaitlyn Handreck and Year 7 student Olivia Radisich have their stories featured in today's lift-out within the Ballarat Courier.
Stories can also be read online at: https://www.thecourier.com.au/community/shout-news/
This publication also featured other Ballarat students that are speaking out on international and national issues and how COVID and lockdowns are shaping their lives.
These Ballarat students have been meeting once a week throughout Term 3 to learn more about journalism and photography with The Courier staff. They have listened to journalists, photographers and editors, writing stories and creating pictures, which has been a wonderful experience for them.
Well done to all involved, and a big 'Shout' out to staff member and English teacher, Rebekah Chadwick, for guiding the students throughout this project.
