Minimbah TEP Talks

At Minimbah, Year 6 students present TEP Talks. (Definitely not to be confused with TED Talks... don't do that, don't confuse them, they're not the same thing...)

TEP stands for – Technology Education Passions, or is it Taking (an) Extraordinary Plunge? Or perhaps Talks Engaging Peers? Or Teaching Everyone's Passions? Certainly, they are all Truly Engaging Presentations.
And there was huge variety on display. Presentations ranged across such diverse subject matter as – The Government of the Future, How Does Food Connect Us? Autism Awareness, Women's Rights, Racism in Sport, The LGBTQIA+ Community, Clean Energy for The Future and Animal Therapy, each representing students' interests, passions and expertise.

Public speaking is a huge fear for many of us, right through to adulthood. So to be learning these skills in a safe, supported environment is a huge leg-up for these students as they move toward secondary schooling.
