The Guyra Gazette has recently had the pleasure of welcoming Zander Lloyd as part of his Learning through Internship (LTI) placement.
A Year 9 Big Picture student from Guyra Central School, Zander worked alongside editor Janelle Stewart, immersing himself in all aspects of newspaper production. From page layout to sports editing and headline writing, Zander took on each task with enthusiasm and a genuine passion for learning.
He also took part in interviews, photography, and contributed his own written stories to the paper. His experience reflects the core goals of the Big Picture program—learning through real-world projects tailored to students’ interests.
Haylee Campbell and Kelsey McLeod have been exploring the inner workings of the o Guyra Adult Learning Association (GALA),community organisation through their own work experience placements.
The initiative, delivered in partnership with Guyra Central School, gave the students a chance to develop essential workplace and life skills through hands-on learning in a supportive local setting.
The success of both programs highlights the strength of the partnership between Guyra Central School, GALA, and the broader community. Special thanks go to Kylie Adams and Tim Lloyd for their ongoing support of these valuable learning opportunities.
