Hi my name is Matthew Drew and I am a year 8 student at All saints college. At All Saints, we have been taught about values and were able to find out about the values that we follow as a person. I think of myself as a caring and a positive person as I always try to look on the bright side of every situation. my heritage is from Germany and Welsh. I have 2 dogs named patch and flirt, they both are loving and loyal. the values I try to upheld are loyalty, respect, compassion and leadership.

I am involved in a Basketball team and a baseball team. The basketball team is the all saints team. the baseball club I play for is the Melville Braves and I play SL (senior league) which is 14-16 years old. I also play football when its football season and I play for the Melville hawks we are a great team and won the premiership this season. I also did mix martial arts for 6 years and i’m a black belt in it.

I hope that for my future I live a well balanced life with work and family time. I hope that I have 2 kids in my future. I want to have a good job so i can take care of my family and friends. I want to inspire the world.

Our group worked on trying to redesign the Salvation army’s storeroom and marketplace to make it more inviting and to make it more efficient for the people using it and the people organising it.

some things we did to help make the marketplace more welcoming was to come up with different ideas and we found different colours that looked inviting and bright to lighten the mood also to make people happier.

Some things we did to help the organisation of the storeroom and the marketplace was come up with ideas on how to organise different items of food, hygiene, clothes and toys, also we found different ways in those categories to organise them further and make it easier to find different items.

We also had to work together and communicate with the salvation army in order to find the dimensions of the storeroom and marketplace in order to have the most effective use of our time. Because of corona we weren’t able to visit them and view for ourselves what could make it the most welcoming place.

As a person, I learnt that I was able to focus on things better and get things done faster, also I was more motivated to do things because I had nothing else to do, also it was good and bad that I could spend more time with my family.

As a family, we got closer and talked more and got to spend more time and we could do more things together.

as a community it was good being able to teach myself stuff which I like better, also everyone put into online school to help get it started and to keep going, also it was nice that I could finish my work fast and then move onto something that I wanted to do.

the online platforms that I use are Instagram, snapchat, messages, tik tok, Reddit, WhatsApp, we learnt to make sure that you think before you say or assume things, we also learnt that we have to use empathy, respect critical thinking and responsibility in everyday life and online.

the key things that I learnt in this unit were to not immediately assume things that I see on the internet and wait till I know the full story, another key point is to not be a bystander and to be an upstander.

what I learnt did not affect my online behaviour because what we learnt I had already touched base on my other school and with my parents and there have been other incidences that have taught me lessons on how to behave online and with other people.

I do not plan on changing my online behaviour in the future because how I behave online now has a positive effect on my life and the way I act in real life and the way I act online allows me to interact with friends and it allows me to set up things.

I am in the school basketball team with some of my friends, our team isn’t very good but we have spirit and try every game. Our team is the All Saints 003, the last game we played we lost but we all had fun and we will celebrate together.
