Volunteering in Mathematics

Over the course of Term 4, St Clare’s was fortunate to welcome back former College Captain, Angie Lu, who gave of her time volunteering in Years 7, 8 and some Year 11 Mathematics classes. Angie completed her studies at St Clare's in 2015 and has since completed a double degree in Pure Mathematics and English Literature. She is currently studying to become a teacher. During her visits to the College in Term 4, Angie was engaged in either small group remediation and extension or AST (numeracy) preparation skills. All students were extremely receptive to Angie’s enthusiastic instruction, which enriched the learning experience within these classes. Angie has now returned to Victoria to complete her studies. We sincerely hope to see her back at the College again one day!

Protools Boot Camp

During the Term 3 holidays I attended a two-day course on music production using pro tools, the current industry standard software for music production that the ANU School of music was running.

The course included workshops on the music industry, how to use studio equipment, step by step lessons on recording and mixing techniques and so much more. It has been an amazing experience to have the opportunity to work in a studio environment and learn from technicians and professors at the ANU and in the music industry, this course has given me a lot of insight into the music industry and the work that goes into creating music for people to enjoy.
