Grade 10 Service

Service Highlight #2

My 2nd grade 10 service highlight is when I worked at the Spring Fair. I worked at the candy walk and taking down tables for service. This was a great opportunity to get service while having fun at the same time. I hope the Spring Fair runs again next year.

Service Highlight

My grade 10 service highlight is when I was a Camp Counsellor for the grade 4 Camp. It was a sign up bases opportunity and it taught me a lot about leadership and responsibility.

I chose my camp counseling for my service highlight because it was a good way to give back to the school. It is important to give back to the community and school because you should show respect to everyone. Putting service into my life time goals will be a good thing. Having service in your life can open you up to many different opportunities and new people. I will definitely integrate service opportunities into my life as I grow up and encounter new situations. Being a camp counsellor helped me enhance all the students experience at camp and make them feel more comfortable being away from home for a long period of time (to them). I remember my first grade camp and know the difficulties that are associated with those grueling 3 days. I witnessed first hand what a difference a nice counsellor can make. As a camp counsellor we had many new responsibilities to tend to. I was in charge on 5 hyper active grade 4’s. Despite the clear difficulties you have, it was a rewarding experience leading activities like campfire’s, activities, and your own cabin. Counseling gives you a real sense of responsibility. It was good to expand my abilities in working with other people and will benefit me in the future. This highlight shows that I have drive, focus, organization, and enough responsibility to take on any task that is given to me. Next year I hope to go on a service trip with the school to further give back to the world. Service should be provided at every school so kids can have the opportunity to give back. Service provides kids with new responsibility and focus.
