Uniting Church Luncheon

Community service teaches essential values that are difficult to acquire in the classroom. First, responsible citizenship involves making positive contributions for the betterment of others. Support offered can enrich the lives of those in need of supplies, food, or simply some one to talk to. Becoming engaged teaches effective communication skills, enhances problem-solving abilities, and strengthens the sense of teamwork. Performing community service gives our students a unique opportunity to see the world from different perspectives while been of service to others.

On Tuesday October 11, five Year 10 students, Mr. Leo McMahon and myself, worked as a team to prepare and serve a fantastic lunch to clients at the Uniting Church Hall. Roast chicken served with roasted vegetables, tomato and onion pie and thick brown onion gravy was certainly a hit with the clients. This was followed up by a creative desert designed by Mr. McMahon, which was also very well received by the participants.

I would like to congratulate Grace Mawson, Amy Shelly, Tana Nedziwe, Sharnee Hutchison and Hayley Cumming on the amazing job they did. They worked well as a team and did all tasks requested of them without hesitation. They were confident and enthusiastic in going about their duties, and were wonderful representatives of Monivae College. Bravo.

Mr Terry Molan.
