In 2022 (year 11), I have been coaching the younger year groups in a variety of sports during Interhouse Sport. After participating in the sports myself from years 7-10, I have always wanted to be like the other coaches, and help make the sports fun, engaging and social for the younger years. Some sports I have helped coach this year include year 7 frisbee and year 10 volleyball. I also coached at the year 8 netball lightning carnival in 2021, and at the junior school athletics carnival in 2020. These coaching opportunities allowed me to connect with the younger year groups, gaining experience and knowledge with keeping them engaged, having fun and learning to be a leader. I’ve enjoyed each of these opportunities and learnt a lot about developing my skills in communication, leadership, courage and integrity.

Amana Advocates
In 2021 (year 10), I was part of the service group, Amana Advocates. This group was made up of several students from my year. Amana Advocates was a group designed to visit, socialise and communicate with the residents in the nearby Amana facility. Most of these residents experience impairments and need support in their day-to-day lives. We worked together planning an activity that would involve the year 7 and 8 students, and spread awareness on the lives Amana residents live in an engaging way. However, due to the COVID-19 restrictions, we were unable to follow through with this activity.
Barista Course
During the 2019 July holidays, I participated in a barista course that taught me how to make coffees and touched on how to be a waitress. I received a certificate in completion of the activity.
