Steven Hogan, Classroom teacher, Shelford Girls' Grammar School

Over the course of the last year, Steven Hogan has implemented the SPARK Film Festival, an innovative new project for Year 5 and 6 students at Shelford Girls’ Grammar School. Students were given the opportunity to find their own personal ‘spark’: a topic they were passionate about, such as bullying, climate change or pollution. With Hogan’s guidance, the students learned a range of key filming techniques that enabled them to create meaningful and moving films. Students then submitted their films into a competition. Hogan has since shared this unit of work with other teachers around the globe.
