Leadership Workshop

Recently, the school organized (for the first time ever) a leadership skills building workshop for all OSC service leaders and the Student Government. We were made to carry out several abstract tasks in order to provide a vivid description of what leadership is, which was beneficial. For example, we were asked to describe a picture of cow dung upclose, with fungi growing on it and pleasant trees in the background. This led to several good examples of what a leader should observe and do, most importantly being able to look beyond the short term. On the whole we were able to understand the demands and responsbilities of a leader in better terms and I don't think I will forget the 'definition' provided for leadership, as someone who creates "an enabling environment" with a "shared purpose", advice that I found to be true and I will keep to help me in future endeavours.      

Alzheimer's Elective

We've been doing a lot of work recently, very active. The SL Alzheimer Foundation is organizing a raffle for which we have been asked to sell 20 booklets. To do this we have been making posters that were put around school. We then sell the tickets straight after school with two people from the elective volunteering to help me and seong. The ticket sales have been quite rapid as well as another fun experience in raising funds. And i believe we've created a shared purpose with an enabling environment in selling these raffle tickets :)
