Hot off the press our Year 7/8 Community Connections group were excited and proud to present their interviewees with copies of the books that were drafted and published based on conversations conducted in August this year. Over a shared morning tea, the students presented copies of the published texts to Brenda Mathieson, Timboon Mens Shed participants; John Wigley, Terry O’Connor, Doug Trigg, Albert Toal, and Tom Hose and to Cliff Pert from the TDHS Social Support Group. By exploring the experiences of other people, students have learnt more about themselves, discovered their creativity, developed their writing skills, learnt about the history of the local area, hopefully have felt more connected to the community, made new friends and left a legacy for both the participants and our society. After the presentation, students shared part of the Timboon P-12 School history display that had been curated by Mrs Mackenzie with research provided by Peter Younis from the the Heytesbury Historical Society, much to the delight of the Timboon residents. Congratulations to the students, teacher Sarah Whitworth and all the participants, including Lesley Togni, Ray McCraw and Gerry Kor for such a great experience and community legacy.
