Our Year 6 Leaders have continued to demonstrate their leadership skills by engaging in a range of service activities throughout our community. Below are some of the ways our learners have contributed to creating a culture of action:

Green House

This term, Green House has been working on fitness videos to keep the younger students entertained and healthy. We hope they can utilise these during their brain breaks or on rainy days. These videos have been in the making for quite some time. As the fitness group, we assist in distributing and maintaining all the sports equipment in good condition and manage the sports shed, which operates on a roster system. Every Green House leader is assigned at least one day per week to take care of the sports equipment, ensuring a fair roster for everyone. We hope the Holy Trinity Community benefits from our work.

Red House

Over the past seven weeks, Red House leaders have had the privilege of celebrating many of the remarkable aspects of the school. We have been exploring ways to share with our school many of the incredible events and experiences our members engage with that may otherwise go unnoticed. We hope that other Year 6 Leaders continue our focus and are able to share some of these experiences in future school newsletters.

Blue House

This term, the Light Blue House has been honoured to participate in the Holy Trinity’s school community by raising the flags out the front of the school every morning in tribute to all Australians. We have also enjoyed assisting our teachers by delivering their note bags and conveying messages for them. We see these acts of service as an opportunity to demonstrate leadership and our identity as open-minded, caring, and principled learners through actions that help foster a sense of belonging for all members of the school community.

As the Dark Blue House, we have contributed to the sustainability of our Holy Trinity community. We have done this by raising awareness of environmentally friendly ways we can help our environment. We created Earth Day bags to encourage younger students to be more sustainable. We made posters for our school bins to help younger students place their rubbish in the correct bins. In conclusion, we believe it is vital that we make our school more eco-friendly and an environmentally effective place for our community to come together.

Gold House

In recent weeks, Gold House has raised over a thousand dollars for charity. As part of the Christian Outreach group, we have conducted the Easter raffle, managed Caritas boxes, and organised Dunk The Teachers Day. Our school raised money to support Caritas and its community. We support Caritas because we recognise that we have a good education, and we want to share it with others by giving them the same opportunity. We have become more passionate about fundraising, and this has been extremely beneficial for us as we have learnt more about helping others and prioritising their needs before our own. We hope we can pass this knowledge on to the next group of Year 6 Leaders.
