Castlemaine Gift

Become a Digital Campaigner

ABOUT
Work in a small team to design and create a website for the legendary Castlemaine Gift sporting event.

Building a website is like painting a picture. You have to think about how the home page will look, what information it needs to share, and how you can best tell the story of the Gift. You will get to bring out your creative side, whilst also learning practical skills for the modern workplace. Pretty neat, right?

This program will be led by the team at We Push Buttons, a digital design agency based in Castlemaine. Their work is all about creativity, design, writing, marketing and thinking outside the box.

Founder Rob Jennings and Web Developer Scott Sanders will be guiding you as your team brings Castlemaine Gift online. They are wizards of the craft, with heaps to show you about how to create a rock solid online presence... which is just what Castlemaine Gift needs.

Rob and Scott will pass onto you everything you need to know... kind of like passing the baton. That being said, no running is actually required in this Take Over. You will learn how to run a website though, if that counts?

The program will be in person and involve six, 2 hour sessions, over 8 weeks. Each member will undertake a role in the team.

Join a Take Over that designs, creates and works with local movers and shakers.
