Since starting my journey at the College in 2019, I have learned so much. Currently, my favourite subject is Visual Arts. I enjoy the autonomy and creative freedom that I get with it. Currently, I study the core subjects, and my electives currently are just visual arts.
My learning goals for the future are maintaining focus and being able to create a study envrionment outside of school. The best way I like to learn is by studying in the presence of others, and by listening to music while studying.
Things I have learnt outside of the classroom while at All Saints include collaboration and how to make long lasting friendships, and how to be resilient.
The three most important lessons I have learned in school is
- Don’t take criticism from people you wouldn’t seek advice from
- Don’t leave things until the last minute
- Sometimes we have to let go of things or people when they don’t change.
I would be interested in pursuing a career in either being a cardiologist, optometrist or a teacher when I am older, and maybe take a gap year. A university course I would be interested in studying after Year 12 would be a Bachelor of Education or a Bachelor of Science. The future is still very unknown to me! For now I’m trying to develop skills to help me get into those courses.
Since writing this, I have chosen my courses for 2022. Here is what I have chosen, and why….
| Subject | Why? |
|---|---|
| Literature ATAR 11 | I enjoy analysing things, and enjoy looking at English from a more analytical than creative perspective. |
| Psychology ATAR 11 | I have a natural interest in psychology, and would like to maybe take further study into psychology when I am older. |
| Visual Arts ATAR 11 | I have a talent in visual arts, and I hope I can extend myself with this course. It is also a less academic course than my other courses, giving me a bit of leisure time. |
| Politics and Law ATAR 11 | I enjoyed my P + L unit in HASS this year, and I seem to have a natural interest in it. I’m considering being a Humanities teacher when I’m older. |
| Mathematics Methods ATAR 11 | I’m not quite sure what I want to do, but choosing Methods keeps my options open. |
| Modern History ATAR 11 | I enjoyed my history unit in HASS this year, and I seem to have a natural interest in it. I’m considering being a Humanities teacher when I’m older. |
