Update from the Student Leadership Team!
This term, The Student Leadership Team has been busy preparing a range of activities and fundraising events for the school!
The Philanthropy Action Group held a Bake Sale for our World’s Greatest Shave event on the 30th of May, which was very successful with just over $240 being raised for the AHS team. On the 24th of June, we will host a World’s Greatest Shave event at school, with brave participants volunteering to shave, cut or colour their hair to raise awareness and funds for the Leukaemia Foundation. Moreover, from the 4th – 26th of June, the Push-Up Challenge is taking place in Australia, and AHS is taking part to do our part in raising awareness for mental health! To fundraise, a BBQ will take place on the 20th of June at lunchtime for students to enjoy a snag, whilst contributing to this great cause.
The Extra-Curricular Team organised and has been running a Basketball Competition throughout the term. With the group stages wrapping up just before exams, make sure to head down to the ECA in the couple weeks following exams (Week 9 & 10) for the knockout stages. Keep an eye on teams for finals dates!
The House Spirit Action Group has organised a house logo competition, with entries open until the 27th of June. The winning logo will be used in House events and potentially the house banners. See teams or compass for more info!
For IDAHOBIT day, the Wellbeing Team organised for Headspace to come in at lunch and organise various activities for students, to celebrate the diversity of our school community. Moreover, to celebrate Education Support staff day, a padlet was released to the students with everyone writing a positive message of thanks to all the staff members who do significant work for the school, behind the scenes.
We are excited for a busy few weeks ahead!
