Food Deliveries

Chloe HarrisonLeave a comment

Over the past 5 years, I have been doing food deliveries through the All Saints parish. Every second Saturday at about 11 in the morning, my dad and I drive to All Saints and pick up the food for that week’s deliveries. The food packages vary on the number of people, the dietary requirements of the people and if they have children or not. Each family or person get between 3 and 6 bags depending on the size of the family. They also get between 4 and 12 eggs. We then set off to deliver the food parcels. We deliver them all over Perth and do between 4 and 7 deliveries each time but we have done up to 11 during busier times.
Food deliveries have given me a new appreciation for what I have. I am very lucky to attend a school like all saints and I realise this every time I do the food deliveries. All the people we deliver to live below the poverty line in old, dirty houses most with lots of children and animals. These deliveries make me very grateful for what I have and make me realise how lucky I am to be in the position that I am in.
I would highly recommend doing food deliveries to anyone. It is so rewarding, at the end of each delivery you feel like you have done so much good and it’s so lovely to see the smile on people’s faces when you give them the deliveries they have been waiting for. I always go home feeling happy so I would recommend it to anyone.

Peer Support Alternate Activities

Chloe HarrisonLeave a comment

Last year I applied to be a peer support leader for O’Connor. Sadly I didn’t get one of these roles but still got to do some super fun activities while the peer support training was being run. On Monday I started off my day by going on a bus to the river and doing rowing with the rest of O’Connor who didn’t get into peer support. This was a lovely activity run by Ms Rees and the rowing teacher. We were taught the skills of rowing first on land and then we got to go in the water and test out the skills we had learned. It was surprisingly hard to balance in the canoe but after falling in the water a couple of times we headed off to yoga. Yoga was a nice relaxing, afternoon activity where we learnt single, partner and group yoga poses. It was a lot of fun and everyone was laughing by the end of it.

On Tuesday we started off our day by making cookies. These cookies were for Salvation Army who then gave them to homeless people as a little Christmas gift. This was super fun and we got to personalise our cookies to how we wanted them to look. After cookie making, we got to participate in a self-defence workshop run by a coach from out of school. This workshop was a lot of fun and everyone enjoyed it a lot. We learnt many skills and even got to practice them on each other. The afternoon activity was my favourite. We got to go down to the ECC (early childhood centre) and be around the little kids for the afternoon, playing with them in the playground, doing crafts and reading Christmas stories. This activity made everyone so happy as the kids were so full of energy and excitement. We started off playing with them in the playgroup which allowed us to meet everyone and even play some chasey. We then helped them make some mini Christmas wreaths and even though we got sticky with glue everyone found it enjoyable. We finished off our afternoon by reading the kid’s Christmas stories and we even had some gingerbread men to finish off a fun day.

I really enjoyed the two-day experience and even though I was originally sad about missing out on peer support I had a really fun two days with my friends. My recommendation to someone who doesn’t make peer support is to take these two days as a bit of fun. The activities make you laugh and have a lot of fun and you get to do it with your friends.

Hot House Instagram Takeover

Chloe HarrisonLeave a comment

Earlier this year, during the rehearsing of the school production “MAMMA MIA”, I was given the opportunity to take over the Hot House Instagram for a day to promote the production. This opportunity arose as I am a part of the Arts Council, and someone was needed to promote the production in broader ways. I thought this opportunity was a unique one and I was happy to put my skills into something useful. As part of the takeover, I went to school during the holidays to one of the MAMMA MIA rehearsals and gained access to the Hot House Instagram. I worked alongside Miss Osmetti, and she guided me throughout the day. I created stories, showed behind the scenes videos, took photos of the cast rehearsing and at the end of the day posted on the Instagram account showing exciting pictures I had taken during the day and outlining the efforts the cast and crew had put in during the past few months.

Throughout the day I had to use a lot of creativity to make the stories engaging. I took photos from different angles and in different lighting. I took both photos and videos and used different texts and stickers on the posts to engage the audience in different ways. My work was received with great enthusiasm from multiple members of staff and Mr Mayhill’s described my work as professional and informed me that it was the most impactful work that was produced during the production of MAMMA MIA. I believe I showed great leadership through this experience as I not only stepped up to the opportunity, but I took initiative throughout the day. I worked with new people and teachers and made sure I asked for help when I needed it. This opportunity not only expanded my skills but opened new doors for me as I can now produce more content for Instagram and show others how to work these tools to create exciting and engaging content.
