Each year, a different element of Wakakirri is the ‘Focal Subject’ of the Master Class Content, allowing teachers to explore the various skills to be taught and learned throughout the Wakakirri Process. Schools who attend the Wakakirri Master Classes CONSISTENTLY achieve above average results.
Mark Wilson – National Panel Member “Judging the Wakakirri Secondary School Challenge was a real privilege as there was such a variety of talent and themes. All the schools lifted when they walked on stage. It was amazing!”
Mr Dan Smith, Assistant Principal – Serpell Primary School VIC “I just wanted to say a big thank you for your organisation of the Master class last Thursday. It was a great experience and as this is Serpell’s first time participating, it gave me a good insight into what is expected”
