Good citizens pack cameras

27 APRIL 2009

Students from Melrose Primary School in Wodonga will be supplied with digital cameras on Wednesday 29 April in the name of becoming better citizens. As part of a collaborative project between Charles Sturt University’s (CSU) Murray School of Education, Wodonga City Council, and Wodonga’s early childhood services and primary and high schools, the students will be ferried by bus to iconic sites such as the Wodonga Water Tower, Sumsion Gardens, Felltimber Reserve and Willow Park Skate Bowl to develop a photo display using their own photos to describe what they would like to see Wodonga become. “The list of sites was agreed on by the Year 5 and 6 students, who will take photos of what they think is important in these places,” said CSU education professor and project coordinator, Sue Dockett. “These images will then be used by the children to describe what it is it they value about Wodonga, as well as what they would like to see happen in Wodonga to make it a better place in which to live.”
