Hi, my name is Madison Gray, for my **VCAL** workplacement i worked at **Colours Cuts and Curls** in **Lockington** every Monday from 8.30am until 6pm all up i managed to get 95 hours of work. For my first **VCAL** project i organised for 3 guest speakers from **Bendigo Health** to talk to the year 11 students about adolecent depression. I also organised a lunch for the guest speakers and invited parents to come if they would like to talk to them. That project took a little while to get going because it was so hard to find someone who would come to a country town for a cheap price or even for free. But in the end the day was very successful and we had some good feedback. For my second **VCAL** project i organised for the **VCAL** class to go to **Melbourne** and visit **Sacred Heart Mission**, we were unable to serve lunch but instead we were givin a presentation on the work **Sacred Heart Mission** do. Going to **Sacred Heart Mission** was a bit of a eye opener for many students, because **Sacred Heart Mission** is along grey street there were many homeless people and a few prostitutes so we got many strange looks. During that day we also went to the herald sun building to drop off Stephs check to the good friday appeal. We also went to **Retro Star** as a part of Jennas project. Overall it was a very interesting and successful day. For my last oral presentation Jenna and i gave Steph a make-over and spoke about what we were doing as we did it.
