All the proposed 2011 day seminars and workshops available to schools as a 3 day package, are now ready for your perusal on our sister site www.universityonwheels.org (click WORKSHOPS tab). You will find a great range of new and exciting topics such as HOOKED ON BOOKS, CREATIVE LEADERSHIP, STRATEGIC THINKING and XTRA SECRET LINGO as well as a number of your old favourites. Some subjects sound familiar but come with a brand new look such as the new mysteries to solve in SCENE OF THE CRIME and FORENSIC SCIENCE. Keen mathematicians will be delighted to know that Ken Ring is back with his ever popular MATHS MAGIC sessions and there are even more maths delights to sample via Geoff Woolford and Choon Tan who have also agreed to join our maths team.
The new ANZAC AWARENESS SEMINAR is definitely worth checking out and offers an in depth study of the Gallipoli Campaign and not only the reasons why we observe Anzac Day, but also a wider look at the origins and aftermath of the conflict. And the omnipresent question is posed via role play: could all the carnage have been avoided with the use of appropriate mediation, negotiation and diplomacy?
Junior wordsmiths will love the opportunity to enroll in the YOUNG AUTHORS' workshop or work in cub reporter teams and prepare work for possible publication in the JUNIOR JOURNALISTS seminar. Historians will find that CLASSICS has now been divided into separate studies of Greece and Rome. These workshops give an introduction to the language of antiquity or, alternatively, a chance to become involved in the Greek or Roman drama of Aristophanes or Plautus.
We think that 2011 looks like being a great year for keen learners.
