Student Leadership Day
On Thursday, 12 February senior students from the College travelled to Townsville to participate in the Grip Student Leadership Conference.
The workshop style conference, which was attended by students from as far afield as Cloncurry, was facilitated by youthful presenters who gave the students strategies to turn ideas into realities in their respective schools.
Under the broad theme of “Stand Up”, the workshop addressed issues such as organising events, resolving conflicts and speaking in public. There was also time for fun, and the opportunity to meet student leaders from other schools.
All in all the Grip Leadership Conference was an inspiring experience which promises to bear fruit in the form of more effective student leadership at Columba.
