Mia Marchant & Kaity Harms

At the end of last term, we got the opportunity to attend a leadership camp for year 11 students. The camp took place at Nudgee with plenty of other school students from Brisbane to Townsville. The camp was led by brother Damien Price, and we had plenty of guest speakers and leaders come to talk about leadership and how we are going to lead our school better. It was a great opportunity to meet new like-minded people and expand our skills in leadership. The highlight of the camp for was playing wheelchair basketball and our team winning.

Although we had lots of fun and met many new friends it was also a time to reflect on our leadership journey ahead and what type of leader we wanted to be. We learnt that it is important to lead by example even if it is the smallest action and many characteristic traits that come into leadership.

One of the thoughts they left us with and that has stuck with us is, “Plant a seed that will one day grow to be a great tree that will give shade to people you won’t know” We are excited to start planting these seeds for OLSCC.
