After exploring the ideas in the final text of Focus 10 consider :
- how you might try and replicate that sense of achievement experienced by Sir Edmund Hillary
with each individual member of the class
- how the class might plan to celebrate their own achievements in learning and those of Sir Edmund Hillary and his team
- how their successes, new knowledge and skills might be shared with others in the school and community
- how their knowledge base and skills can be built on and used across a range of areas.
- are we born to leadership or are we made?
- how each class member can be given an opportunity to learn and demonstrate leadership in some area just as Sir Edmund Hillary was given the opportunity.
Take a photo, shake hands , give a hug, celebrate your achievement, look forward to new challenges and enjoy your future successes.
