For those in ACT, VIc, SA, Tas, you can look forward to a long weekend. No work Monday. The holiday celebrates the 8 hour day or Labour Day though in SA it's just called March Public Holiday. How odd.
For those in the other states, holidays are on the horizon with Easter looming...

Last week, Shows For Schools went along to Brighton Primary in Melbourne. Experienced presenter, Tim Powell (pictured above), was there for the day running three sessions on Leadership, Resilience and Anti bullying.
What a brilliant idea to bring in an expert. Not only is Tim a teacher and a counsellor but he’s a gifted presenter . The school decided on this format because according to Gr 6 Team Leader, Kerry Sayer,
"We booked a whole day due to scheduling on our end- a very busy school."
I sat in on the Resilience session. Teachers wanted it to run 1 hr 40, to fit the timetable, a little longer than usual. It wasn’t a problem for Tim. With the range of video, photos, power point, speaking, drama activities, he kept the students interest and taught them ways of thinking that I’m sure will stay with them (and me).
Teacher feedback was
.. "the presenter was very engaging and the games supported the lessons and values he was trying to convey. He tailored it well to support our leadership process as well as social issues we have been having in the cohort."
And most importantly - "The students thought the games were great."
Tim offers 5 different workshop/presentations and can adapt them to suit your needs. Check them all out here.
