A Fuller Sense Of Self, 5 Years On: Trailer
Channel: michael chalk
Date: 2016-08-19

"A Fuller Sense of Self - a collection of stories told by adult literacy students" was published by VALBEC in 2011. These students shared their thoughts about returning to study to develop their literacy skills. They described why they made that move and how that decision shaped and changed their lives for the better. 

Five years on we decided to revisit these students and their stories, to find out where they are now and to discover if and how learning continues to influence their life journey. We tracked down three of our original storytellers. Linda, a student from the Glenroy Neighbourhood Learning Centre, and David and Sue, both students from Southern Grampians Adult Education based in Hamilton in Western Victoria. 

This time our storytellers kindly and courageously shared their thoughts on camera.

VALBEC will launch the video stories on 06 September for ALW. Put the date in your diaries now, and stay tuned.
