Toby Start of my journey. At the start of my journey my weakness was independence because I always asked a teacher before I tried the task myself. What have I learnt? I have learnt that effective communication is important because if you don’t communicate to your team you wont get anywhere!!! What’s next for me? I need to improve on my creative skills because I am not great at coming up with creative ideas.
Harry Start of the residential I think at the start of the residential I needed to improve on my team work. What I have learnt I have learnt to communicate better by making sure I communicate effectively and listen to people. What I want to look at next? To become a better team learner.
Amber The start of my journey At the start of my journey I lacked my teamwork, ressilience and communication skills. On the first day I didn’t know what to expect the only thing I knew was we were canoeing. What have i learnt? I have learnt how to work more effectively as a team and communicate more. On learning to learn day although we won, that wasn't because we were perfect. The reason we won we won because we are a good team. How are we going to use this? I think that we could use these skills in many ways. One by when we have to do work in groups from now on our cooperation skills will be better because of the residential.
Beth • At the start of the journey I was not very confident with being independent as I like to work in teams • Over the last two days I have changed and have become more independent by being able to read a map independently and take lead of a group by using the route cards.
Jake • At the start of my journey my weakness was in team building because I found it hard to work with other people. • I have learnt that if you work on your own you will not get that far as if you work as a team our are more likely to be successful. • What's next for me? • After the team building exercises that we did and the team journey yesterday I have become a more effective communicator improving my independent skills.
Cody • At the start of my journey I wasn’t very good at working in a team. However on Tuesday we learnt more about team work. This let us get through all the activities over the last two days. I have learnt about communicating effectively, making me better at teamwork. I think I can still improve more by planning and thinking before starting a task making sure we are prepared.
Ethan • At the start I found the knots hard. • I was resilient, I didn’t give up , I now know reef knots. • I hope to use the experience to continue to try my best.
Ryan • At the start of my journey I was more independent and was not so good at communicating in a team. • I have learnt that effective team communication is more important than I thought. I have found that working in a team allows us to be much more successful. I feel I still that I need to continue to work hard at my listening skills. • I would also like to improve on thinking about others, not just myself.
Kate • At the start I was held back by weakness like staying away from home. • As a team communication was hard, we didn’t listen and did lots of things instead. • I have learnt that although my new experiences can be scary, they can have good consequences. If I didn’t come on this residential I would not of become as independent. My team have learnt that we need effective communication to win. • After this I will try to stay away from home more to build up my confidence. • I am glad I came, it was a great experience.
Hannah • At the start I was not a great team player, as I found it hard to get involved. • When we did the activities on the field I saw how you could become an effective team. • Now that we completed the walk and the river canoe journey I feel we know what makes a good team and we can succeed.
Hope • At the start my weaknesses was to communicate effectively in my team. • I have learnt that team communication is one of the most important parts in team building. • Next I need to continue to make improvements. I need to get better at listening to other peoples opinions.
Patrick • At the start of my journey my weakness was teamwork as I usual work on my own. • I have learnt that working in a team leads us to success and helps us understand how to work better as a team. What's next for me? Team learning – because I still need to improve how to work well in a team because I wasn’t communicating effectively all the time.
