Day in the Life of an Adult

After 13 years of formal education many students leave school feeling like they don’t know how to be an adult!

This group’s crazy good idea is to organise a day at school where students experience what life is like as an adult for the day. This group envisions the day to include workshops on topics such as money, housing, cooking, cleaning, work and jobs.

As a smart place to start, Charlie, Ollie, Xavier, Jack, Cooper & Cael are hoping to collaborate with local businesses and banks to offer students in year nine a class every week which will focus on equipping students with skills to help them when they become adults.
