From the Art Leaders 

Being Art Leaders has been a great opportunity to implement artistic pursuits at Emanuel School. We began two successful art clubs, PomPom Club and a 3-4 Art Club, and entered Emanuel School Primary into three different inter-school art competitions.

PomPom club was held for Years 5-6. We had lots of fun making pom-poms with friends. Students loved coming to PomPom club at lunchtime, and always brought along a new friend. This was a great experience to spend time with friends and make pom-poms!

The Years 3-4 Art Club consisted of many areas in art, such as collages, cards, and embroidery. Students across Years 3 and 4 worked individually to produce their own unique work of art. This was a great way to have fun and be as creative as you like, while discovering new styles of art. It was lovely to see students discover their creative side.

We wish the 2023 Art Leaders lots of fun and great ideas for students to enjoy art at Emanuel School.

From the Enviromental Leaders

Year 6 was a fun year and we enjoyed seeing how the younger children thought and idealised about the environment. We loved working with them and inspiring them, and even inspiring ourselves. Mrs Tritsch was a helpful mentor in sharing ways to help us get our projects done. From our BioBlitz to our meeting with Rabbi Bergmen, the president of the WUPJ, we loved being Environmental Leaders.

This role may not be the most well known one, but it plays a very important part in our school environment. We think we speak for the whole Green Team when we say that we enjoyed every part of contributing to our world.

From the Year 6 Madrichim

Some of the highlights of being the 2022 Madrichim are running the assemblies and doing News of the Fortnight, running the K-2 Gala Day with the House Captains, helping younger students prepare for their camp, leading prayers for younger years and developing many ideas in our meetings for the Primary School.

One of the most memorable initiatives that we invented this year is the Kindness Catchers program. We launched this initiative as part of our Anti-Bullying day activities, which continued throughout the year. The program encouraged students to be kind and caring to one another. We wanted to promote students to be kind all the time, not just for coupons, but because it was the right thing to do.

As we move into Year 7, we will miss being leaders of Primary and working with our mentors. Some words of advice that we have for the 2023 Madrichim are: Enjoy and be loyal to the position and have fun, make your mark and leave your legacy. You will remember this special opportunity for many years to come.The main thing is to not expect that everything that you think of will be achievable… we still don’t have the swimming pool that we promised everyone!

We loved being Madrichim and we wish the 2023 Madrichim best of luck.
