The CBD program is definitely one of my favorite experiences of year 8 at Malvern Central School. I have a greater understanding off the city I live in. I can confidently make my way around or get to any location in Melbourne’s CBD.I had never before used trains this much and after the program I had learnt how to use them. Every day after school in the city I would have to take trains to get to my swimming training. I learned what routes would be more efficient and how i could get there as fast as possible. One off my favorite excursions was the Eureka Tower. This was both a fun a thrilling experience because we went on the Edge which is a glass box that comes out off the side of the tower and has clear glass at your feet and you can see the city below you. Another great excursion was when we went to the Big Issue. At the Big Issue we learnt how it is for homeless people to survive in Melbourne and how the Big Issue helps and gives these people opportunities to progress in their lives and socialize with other people. An example of which is their Soccer program. There are many memories and experiences which I will take away from this program. The 5 weeks in the city have been both enjoyable and educational and I hope that for many years to come, students will have a great time at the CBD program like I did!
