During Week 1 of this term, Year 7 students worked in teams to design improvements to View Road Reserve that would enhance the liveability of Burnie. Each team wrote a persuasive letter to the Burnie City Council and created a 3D model of their ideas in Minecraft. These were displayed on posters which were presented in the Chanel Atrium.
A dedicated group of student volunteers and two special guests, Burnie City Councillors, Teeny Brumby and Amina Keygan, formed the judging panel to decide which team had the best ideas in each category.
The winners were awarded a certificate and small prize at a Year Level Assembly on Wednesday 19 May.
