One of our new Senior Enrichment Programs "Sit Down and Write" began on Tuesday of this week with a great turnout of Year 12 students.
Based on the 'Pomodoro' technique on time management, the session involves students writing non-stop for 25 minutes before taking a short break and then starting all over again. Students might be writing an essay, completing maths questions, finishing study notes - so long as they are writing/typing for the full duration each round. Students can attend on an intermittent basis throughout the year and drop in when they need to.
These sessions are currently run every Tuesday at the Glasshouse Cafe with potential for more during our busier weeks and dependant on student turnout. Thank you to Ms. Hawken for running this initiative to beat the old friend that is procrastination!
