FSA has provided us with the encouragement to look over the horizon and then reflect on how we are preparing our students to be future ready. With their ongoing support, we are redesigning how we ‘do school.’

Dear FSA members,
The FSA is pleased to announce our first overseas Educational Learning Journey in collaboration with Macquarie College.
This trip is scheduled to start on April 26, 2020 in Helsinki, and finish in Amsterdam on May 6. We will spend 11 days across a number of countries, visiting innovative sites and schools, talking with leading educators, and sharing our findings and reflections over fantastic meals. The cost of this trip will be $8,000pp - which includes accommodation (individual rooms), transportation during the trip, various meals, and programmed activities.
If this sounds like something you are interested in - please consider this as a 'save the date', and feel free to complete a, no-obligation, Expression of Interest here.
More details on the trip will be released in the coming weeks.
Kind regards,
Dave

I have already shared this widely. I am glad to see Gonski 2.0 having an influence and to be in a school transforming toward student empowerment and self-managed skills mapping.
Great opportunities for innovative educators to work at tone of Australia's most creative and forward thinking schools. Check out this St Luke's clip. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_PF9RQE1wc&feature=youtu.beyoutube.com
