Key Leadership Role #1



A way I have participated fully in my key leadership role is by not just helping in the library on my set day, one monday I was in the library and saw that there were a lot of books that needed to be put back onto the shelves and so I offered to help Mrs Ward and Mrs Griffiths put them back. They seemed like they really appreciated me helping them when I was putting the books away and I also made sure that I put them in the correct place, I have shown the CARE value Excellence.

Showing Leadership #5

 Another way I have Shown leadership is during a wet day morning tea / Lunch. People were being a bit silly loud and throwing glue sticks around when I was trying to read my book, but instead of getting really angry and annoyed I decided to be self aware and move to a more quiet spot. There I finished my book and completed a can do for SML. I have demonstrated the CARE value Active Thinking.

Showing Leadership #4



Another way I have shown leadership is sometimes Mr Muller will ask for some help setting up the hall for assembly, so I always volunteer. When we are setting up the hall we have to un stack the chairs for family, friends, seniors, teachers and any presenters. We also have to open some windows. The CARE values I have shown in doing this are Excellence and Active Thinking.

Showing Leadership #3



Another thing I think I have shown leadership in is joining the school choir because you do not have to join it is optional last year Mr M choir didn't seem like many students were going to the elderly people's home so me and Charlotte asked if we could go  so we went to the old people's home and sang some christmas songs. While I am at choir I think I join in with the songs and what we are doing and I always make sure that I remember to go each Friday I think I have shown the CARE values Active thinking and Excellence.

Showing Leadership #2

Showing Leadership around the school

I strongly think I have shown Leadership with the way I communicate and interact with my buddy program children, as I get involved with my two little buddies Emma and Ester outside of the set time that we have to spend with them. I  went to say hello to them at lunchtime Ester taught me how to do the monkey bars and Emma showed me how she can go up and down the yellow bar that you climb up then slide down, that was pretty cool I have shown the CARE values Community and Excellence.

Showing Leadership #1



Showing Leadership around the school

Being a good role model and helping out around the school. Today at lunchtime I saw that not very many people were picking up rubbish and putting it into their house colour bin. So my friend and I decided to pick up some rubbish lying around the school grounds, we managed to pick up a couple of handfuls of rubbish and had impressed the duty teacher in that area. So as well as helping our house with the rubbish we also got a pozi, we have shown the CARE values Active Thinking and Community, as we helped to keep the area tidy for everyone.
