Community Excellence and Respect

Mini Vinnies
We congratulate our newly appointed Mini Vinnies Leaders. Liv, Alec, Amelia, Akur, Thomas and Phoebe. To become a Mini Vinnies Leader, these students completed an application explaining why they wanted the role and what inspired them to apply. They shared that they wanted to help people in need, make a difference in our community and encourage others to show kindness and empathy. They also came up with wonderful ideas about how we can support others through fundraising, awareness days, acts of service and helping those experiencing hardship.
Mini Vinnies follows the “See, Think, Do” model. Mini Vinnies leaders are encouraged to See the needs of others around them, Think about how they can help and understand why people may need support, and then Do something positive to make a difference.
We are excited to see all the amazing work our Mini Vinnies Leaders will do and know they will lead with kindness, generosity and courage. Congratulations once again to all of our Mini Vinnies Leaders.
