Over the last few weeks, our Year 9 LINCS students have been busy building a scarecrow installation for the Kyneton Daffodil and Arts Festival. The project was proudly sponsored by Kyneton on Riverside, which is also where the finished display can be found.
The students showed terrific creativity and plenty of hands-on teamwork, but they also learned a great deal about time management. With both Year 9 ski camps falling in the lead-up to installation day, which pulled members of the class and myself away for chunks of time. We had to plan carefully around a genuinely tight timeline, and they rose to it.
A special thank you to Darren Paxton and Andrew Scarlett, who were extremely generous with their time and skills in creating the bus and the chapel. Another huge thank you to Jenny Baldwin, who brought the idea to us in the first place and did a great deal of behind-the-scenes string-pulling to help it all come together, and of course Steve Huntly our trusty Property Manager for support and set up.
Wednesday morning the students put the whole display in place, and they left the site feeling very chuffed with themselves, and deservedly so too.
