Cheyne McKee is responsible for the overall strategic communications program for the Fund and advising funded projects on communication and promotion matters.
6 University of Ballarat Presentation Training Graduate Teachers The University of Ballarat's School of Education has a long and proud tradition of teacher education and in recent years, the School has moved beyond its traditional role in pre - service teacher education to embrace research, consultancy, higher degree programs, and research supervision. These developments, including significant recent appointments, reflect the School's commitment to its broad mission of teacher education, research and professional engagement. Many current staff have distinguished international reputations for teaching and research in their fields, and for working cooperatively with schools on educational innovations and development. Venues Ballarat Grammar Heinz Centre for Environmental Studies Ballarat Grammar has responded to a growing school population by building an innovative Year 9 complex that provides the venue for engaging, alternative and experiential learning. Ballarat Grammar has followed the lead of other schools in specialising the Year 9 experience; however, Grammar's Year 9 complex is on campus and within walking distance of the main school. Another difference is that almost everything the students experience, from the programs to their physical surroundings, is based on sustainable living principles. Narmbool Narmbool is a 2000 hectare property combining bushland, land and water catchment restoration areas, and fine wool farming. Narmbool is a model for combining sustainable land management, plant and biodiversity and habitat conservation, and farming. Narmbool's multi-disciplinary environmental education programs will develop students' understanding of biodiversity in a unique Australian environment, and the skills to articulate what a sustainable environment means. By visiting and examining some biodiversity hot spots, students learn about healthy habitats, how all things are connected in ecosystems, and the impact of human decisions in maintaining a healthy balance. Indigenous perspectives on the land and its significance enrich the experience. Education programs are designed to cater for middle years students. Our education officers conduct the programs, working with visiting teachers to ensure the best curriculum and personal outcomes for every student. Central Highlands Water - Education Centre and Kirks Waterwise Garden The Outdoor Education Centre overlooks the beautiful Water Wise Garden at Kirks Reservoir Park and is adjacent to the Catchment, Habitat and Water Trail at Gong Gong Reservoir Park. The Centre is an excellent focal point for various educational programs within the Kirks Water Wise Garden, and the Gong Gong Catchment, Habitat and Water Trail. The Outdoor Education Centre integrates the tour of these Central Highlands Water s facilities as an integral part of the hands on, real life philosophy that has been adopted by the education program. The community receive an insight into how a water corporation (like Central Highlands Water) delivers water to their city and then takes it away for treatment after use. Schools and community groups who visit and become involved in the Centre s activities will leave having gained more knowledge about the vital importance of water in our everyday lives and environment.
