Sustainable+CBD+Charlie's+reflection

Project complete. I am very happy with the way we have done the project. Especially that we didn't leave it to the last minute like I did in last projects. Despite not doing everything we wanted to do like the yarra, rubbish systems, environmental problems and ways to reduce polution, I think we have enough info. It would have been better if we went on some excursions earlier to get some photos and get some information before we didn't need anymore.

My favourite excursions were the Eureka skydeck and Parliament house. Eureka skydeck because the view was quite astonishing, to astonishing for some. It was one of those experiences that you would never get tired of seeing, I think I could stay up there for a whole day, there are so many things to look at. Parliament house because it felt really amazing sitting in the seats the politicians sit in making the big decisions that change our lives, and learning about what rules have been made lately.

Through out the CBD program I have learnt heaps of things about Melbourne. I have learnt most about how to get around Melbourne and how to use trains correctly. I now feel more comfortable going into the city for fun on my own (without parents). I have also now found out about some places I didn't know about before and I will go to when I have some spare time on holidays and weekends.

I think this program has been good for getting us used to going to the city to work like adults and being amoungst the working community.

My favourite building is the gauge because it looks cool and it has some really good ideas for sustainability and presentation. At first we thought you prononced it gorge but we now know it is pronounced gage.
