Real Men – Volunteer
This term as part of our Personal Development program the year 7/8 and 9/10 boys completed a real men program. In this program the boys (sorry…now men) discussed what it means to be a man, how our actions speak louder than words, and what responsibilities we have to our community.
The motto we continually reflected on was, “A man is a trustworthy and faithful companion who diligently guides himself, others and his family, contributes positively to society and uses his strength to protect others and to stand for justice. A man takes responsibility for his actions, and lives a life of principal and meaning.”
As a celebration the boys selected volunteering for their community. The group was split into two and half went down to Bastion Point to clean up rubbish and the other half went to the SES shed to clean the Trucks, trailers and shed. It was fantastic to see the boys complete this volunteering with such great spirit, energy and attitude.
Thanks very much to Graham and Peter from the SES for organising and assisting the boys at the shed. I would like to personally congratulate every single boy / now man for what they have achieved this term. It is one step on becoming the man you want to be. Well done men!
