The aim and purpose of our group is to change things the way people think and trying to put a smile on their faces. What we can do is help the elderly, look after kids and make sure they deserve a good life. Trying to put an and to poverty or ensuring that kids, foster homes and old people ensure their safety. All these are considered acts of kindness and that is what we want to do.=====

<span style="color: #553555; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace; font-size: 1.1em;">Questions you need to ask and answer:

 * Would our group be able to go into the city and do random acts of kindness and help different people out for the day?
 * As safety is a big concern, what are some other ways we can do some random acts of kindness, to make other people's day brighter?
 * what are the best times and dates for us to go to the library.

We are working on and narrowing down our project and what we are going to do. We’ve chosen to do something with little kids and possibly a kindergarden. Our values are loyalty, friends, family and hope. These values are guiding us in what our outreach group wants to do. We also had a meeting explaining our ideas and learning each others temperaments. Out temperaments consist of blue, gold and orange. So far we are still deciding on our project.

15th of May 2012 Chantelle Didus Today in DEAL my group “Stand Up” consisting of Nicole, Renee , Kieren , Johnny , Nelson & I we started off with our first group meeting.I was the chairman of the group voted by Stand Up & Johnny was the minuter , we started to run the meeting off with talking about our temperaments and we looked out our strengths and weaknesses and how these effected our us as a team.We then looked at where we wanted to go as a team , how will our idea benefit others , will it benefit others , what makes us different to the other teams.We then looked at ourselves , We chose stand up as the group name because we believe everyone should stand up for what they believe in and we believe that our community is not always happy therefore as our group , Stand Up our goal is to make them have a better day.

In our team we value trust, friends , family , loyalty & respect.We chose these certain values because that’s what we look for in others.Therefore this creates our temperaments to be Gold , Blue & orange people , it’s good that we mostly have Gold people in our team because we can stay concentrated and on task.Orange also balances out the team by making it fun for everyone.Our strengths of our team is that we can be organised , on task and know what we are going to do most of us are good at listening and speaking in front of small groups of people.The challenges of our teams are that the Gold people will help take control of the work and not share it evenly throughout our group but we are hoping our mentor can help us with that.We then did a “The Voice” reconstruction to choose our mentor everyone but Ms.Elmer turned around , we ended up choosing Miss.Williams for our mentor.

15th of May 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today in our DEAL class we went into our outreach groups, in my group there is Renee, Chantelle, Johnny, Nelson, Kieren and myself. Today was our first proper outreach meeting where we got to know more about each other and how we are going to work together as a group in the coming meetings. Today we also got Miss Williams as our mentor, 'Stand up' are happy to have gotten Miss Williams as our mentor as we know she will be able to help and guide us with what direction we want to head in for our goal to be achieved. During our meeting we spoke about our strengths, goals, weaknesses and temperaments and how these things help us as one team. Also Miss Williams helped us by asking us 'where exactly did we want to go as a team?' and 'how will our idea benefit those we want to help'? We thought of calling our group name 'Stand up' because we want everyone to believe in themselves and stand up for what they believe in.

15th of May 2012 Nelson Quintas Today we learnt our values we made a group name stand up and we chose a mentor. That mentor is Miss Williams we done something like the show called the voice. Instead we had to make a speech and read it to 5 teachers. They had to choose us or not want us. They all turned around except for Miss Elmer. Our values are family, trust and friends.

15th of May 2012 Kieren Reynolds Today our group Chantelle, Johnny, Renee, nelson and Nicole selected our mentor which was ms Williams, we believe that Ms Williams will be a good mentor will tell us to do work and encourage us to have fun. our group is called “ Stand Up” our values are Trust, Family, Friends Respect & Loyalty we are going find something to help the community.

15th of May 2012 Johnny Foti Today in our group we chose our mentor (Miss Williams). We chose Miss Williams because we believe that she is a good teacher, she can help us on what we would like to do and where we want to go and she can guide us throughout the rest of this semester. She can also provide helpful ideas for us and we believe that she can help us debate on things during these times. The way we got to choose Miss Williams was because the teachers held a voting system like the show The Voice and if the teachers like our speech and want to work with us they can 'turn around' and we can pick them for our outreach mentor. Today we were also just summing up ideas and had a meeting about where we wanted to go as a group.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">29th of May 2012 <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">Renee Pace <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">Today was our second official DEAL lesson. Nicole, Kieren, Johnny, Nelson and I did a lot of work planning on what we are going to do in the future. (Chantelle was absent) We started off by editing our wiki space page, adding blogs, adding a logo and simply designing it, It looks really good. After that we kept on brainstorming about what we should do, we did come up with a great idea of going into the city and doing random acts of kindness.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">Our mentor Ms Williams was away today, so we had a conference with Ms. Costantino talking about where we are and what we will do. After recess, one of our members went into a google docs master class while we all set up google docs accounts. When Kieren came back he set up a google docs page and set up the meeting. He then added us into the page so we can write and everyone else can see it.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">We then played around with that. We also edited our blog again to include the information from the example wikispace. We needed to add in aims and desired out comes etc. That brought us to lunch. After lunch, we created a poster and wrote out our agenda. I think that our group worked really well and worked together as a team.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">29th of May 2012 <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">Nicole Camilleri <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">Today was another one of our outreach meetings, for this we started off by making sure all of our blogs from last week were on wiki spaces and then we started to add in and create our wikis paces page for our group. We put up our group logo and also the other writing that needed to go on here like; aim and purpose, questions etc. Before going out to recess we had a quick meeting with Ms Costantino, as our mentor Miss Williams was absent. Ms Costantino asked us how we thought we were going and if we had any ideas in mind yet. We realised that we really needed to put our heads down and think of an idea for our group stand up to do. After recess Kieran went to a meeting with Mr Jilbert to talk about and see how to use a google docs for the whole group. We looked at what needed to go on there; things like the agenda, chair person and minute taker etc. during that time we also came up with an idea for our group to do however are not so sure what Miss Williams will say about this. Our idea was to go into the city for the day and do random acts of kindness to make people on the street have a brighter day. As safety concerns will have to be kept in mind for this we are still going to see where it takes us and if we can't maybe think of an idea that has something similar to do like giving random acts of kindness. After lunch time we were assigned with a task where we had to create a poster with a quote, group name and group members on it, our poster was purple and our quote was 'Stand up for what you believe in even if you're standing alone'. I really like this quote as it really relates to group name 'stand u p' and says to never give up on what you believe in no matter what others may think.

29th of May Kieren Reynolds Today I explored google docs and completed it for this week I think it is important to know what our values are because that will help us in what we want to achieve The most challenging thing I did today was creating the logo. I want to know more about what we can do and I will find out more by firstly asking the teacher. At the end of today I am still uncertain about what we are going to but need to a

29th of May 2012 <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #ff004e; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode','Lucida Grande',sans-serif;">Nelson Quintas Today we we made a poster about our group, we had to put a quote and values as well as our group name and members. We had a meeting and Kieren set up a google docs account, this is where we put the minutes and the agenda. also who is absent and present. We discussed what we wanted to do and where we wanted to go as a group. We did a agenda and I joined google docs. We done really well in our outreach group and at school, I think I did good during the meeting we had today. We also came up with an idea to do random acts of kindness, however need to expand on this idea our next group meeting.

29th of May 2012 Johnny Foti today in deal our group was discussing about what we were going to do in the future. Our plan was to do random acts of kindness. Since chantel was away it was very difficult because we had to really think hard of what we wanted to do. But we had miss williams was there, and she was able to help us during that time. I thought we done really well in our group today because we were switched on, we stayed on task and we kept on asking the teacher if we needed help. Today i also played more role in being a time keeper.

29th May 2012 Chantelle Didus Away

Blog- 5th of June 2012 Chantelle Didus Today in Outreach we got into our groups which consists of Nicole ,Renee, Nelson , Johnny & Kieren.We first started off by listing our factors and goals that we wanted to focus on in our group , my group had an idea to do Random Acts Of Kindness.I really thought this was a good idea because I know I enjoy getting compliments or getting help with things. We then sat down with Miss.Williams and talked about how our group can make this action of RAOK can help people in our community.We started discussing to maybe going to people and helping them do odd jobs around the house or community, some other ideas we had were ...Doing RAOK for particular people in the community ,we’re looking for people to help and brighten their day , Elderly people that need odd jobs been done , Organise a community service , Have an Act of Kindness day , Everyone can wear yellow at the end of the day we have a survey getting feedback from the day , Have a letter activity and we can distribute nice letters during Pastoral care or Lunchtime or compliment cards.We then had questions about how we were going to do things such as ,how will we source the people? , How would we benefit those we help? When the considered things like to do a sign up sheet/ or hand out brochures, look at melton council website and see different ways on how we can represent different acts of kindness. We then came up with an idea to read books to younger children and we needed to consult our mentor on this and we did.We got told to maybe contact the library and get them to see if they would like us to create a reading group in the morning at 10.00am

Renee Pace 5th of June 2012 Today we had a meeting with Ms Williams. We talked about the possible ways to help our community. We are focusing more about random acts of kindness. We’re still not sure exactly what we’re going to do but it might be with either little kids or the elderly.After our meeting we all started to research. A website that was very popular was the melton council. I think that’d it’d be a good idea to do random acts of kindness as everyone is leading towards hospitals and sick people. We also helped set up an email to give to the Caroline Springs library, so that is now coming together nicely and we will be able to send it to the library. Our idea is to read to little kids once a while. I think that it'd be a great act of kindness and hope we will be able to proceed with our idea!

Nelson 5th of June Today, we talked about what we did and we sent a email to the library, we researched for things to do and we had a meeting with miss Williams we changed our idea we went on the melton’s home page and saw a lot of things that we can do, but we want to go to the library and read to kids.

Kieren Reynolds 5th Of June today we sent an e-mail to the library to see if we can do something with/ for the library. we had a meeting with our group then one with our outreach teacher. which we talked about the possible things we could do in the community. we then had to think of some nice things to do also around the community.

5th of June 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today in DEAL we had another outreach meeting, we had this meeting with our mentor Ms Williams and told her about what we had come up with last week as she was away. we spoke to Ms Williams about how we thought of going out into the city of something and doing random acts of kindness. She thought this was a fantastic idea however told us to think about exactly what sort of things we could do and exactly how and who we wanted to help out. Ms Williams told us to look deeper into this and have a look at the melton council website as we may be able to come up with a few more different ideas doing the same sort of thing. Chantelle came up with the idea of having an act of kindness day and wearing yellow, also to go to the local library and read picture story books to the younger children there and have something for them to enjoy while at the library. by doing nice things for those around us it can not only brighten up there day but ours as well. we were also told to contact the caroline springs library to see if we would be able to go forward with our idea and if so hold this on a tuesday at 10:00 am. this comes in with the idea of random acts of kindness and hopefully 'stand up' will be able to continue on with the great work that we have been getting through.

12th June 2012 Chantelle Didus Today in DEAL, Outreach we got into our groups which is Nicole ,Renee , Nelson , Johnny & Kieren.The library lady Mandi had gotten back to me and she said she would be more than happy to help us we just had to answer a few questions for her so I answered those questions on the weekend.I had spoken to the group about what I sent back to Ms.Mandi Bell , so we can get our program on track.Now we are just waiting for a response from Mandi , we looked at what we could possibly do on our program and what to do when we get to the library.We thought of having a Theme day , dress up as your favourite book character , Pyjamas Day and a bring your teddy bear day , we thought these were a good idea because it would keep the kids involved each week and would keep them coming back.So hopefully by next OutReach class Mandi has responded so we can get a definite okay.

12th of June Renee Pace Today in DEAL, we got into our groups in the science lab. The librarian Mandi that works in Caroline Springs Library emailed chantelle saying that she would love to help us out and include us into her library group. we also came up with a lot of ideas to do if we were to go ahead with the library idea. Some ideas were for us to have theme days like so that we have to dress up in costumes. Also

12th June 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today in DEAL we went into our outreach group and started off by talking about the e-mail that was sent to the library. We got a reply from this and had to answer the questions that were asked. We are now waiting for a response from the library to see when we can go exactly. Today during our outreach meeting we thought of doing a theme each week when we go to the library. We thought of singing nursery rhymes and also getting the children involved with drawing and coloring in. Another idea we had was to have a pajama day where the children bring a teddy in.also to play different and fun game for them. The other idea that i thought would be lots of fun for the kids was having a fairytale day and getting the children to dress up in their favorite fairytale character. Also there could be a day where we read various Dr. Suess books to them (everyone loves them!) Overall today we had a great meeting and have many ideas on what we want to do as a group and where we would like to go and help out.

12th June 2012 Nelson Quintas Today we only had two sessions we had a meeting by ourselves. Then we then we got Miss Williams involved in the meeting and we were searching thing to do if our original plan didn’t work out. We thought of themes to do and came up with a brief plan about what we are going to do at the library.

12th june 2012 Johnny Foti Today in deal we got together in our outreach groups in the science lab, and discussed where we were going to plan our meeting with the library teacher from Caroline Springs library. We were awfully tired after our exams but we stuck to our main idea's to plan this situation. Chantelle was also sending e-mails to the librarian to organize a meeting. We think this is a great opportunity for little kids who don't know how to read because they need the skills to succeed in life and it all starts with reading. The targeted audience will be around the ages of 5-9 years of age, and we have started to think of reading them picture story books and then start to get more complex by reading chapter books and even doing different theme days.:)

21st June 2012 Chantelle Didus Today we started off with me sharing what Ms.Bell and I had been discussing about going down to the library and start a program.We got a reply back from Ms.Bell asking us to figure out a program for our reading sessions at the library, we sat down and made a rough plan of what we could possibly do we figured out that we would read two books and play a game in between each reading.We sat down with Miss.Williams and we’re told we can’t make it on the following dates 17 & 31st July and the 11th of September due to other commitments.We we’re told to sit down and make a proposal to the leadership team so we can get out activity passed , to go to the library.We filled out an Activity Submission Form so we can hand it into leadership with our proposal.

21st june 2012 Nelson Quintas Today we had a meeting and had good fun, Kieren was not at school so we have to do the work without him. Today we went to the school library and looked through books we can reed to little children. We also had a meeting with Miss Williams and we worked well together as a group.

21st June 2012 Renee Pace Today in our DEAL class, we didn't have all our members but worked on our outreach program to the best we could. We started off by talking about the email that was sent by ms. Bell (a lady from the library that we had been sending emails to). We then made a rough plan to what we think we will be doing in th process of the times that we will be at the library. we also made a proposal and an activity submission form to send into the wellbeing team. We also sent another email to ms Bell confirming what she had said.

21st June 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today in our DEAL class Chantelle told us about Ms Bells email, we also discussed a program to put together so that we can do different games and books with children in our community. We emailed the library and have decided that we need to do have a meeting to discuss specific dates and times. In this lesson we also wrote our proposal and activity submission form. We also went to our school library where we had a look at some of the picture story books that we would be able to read to the children at the library. We found out about some dates that we will not be able to go to the library on due to other school commitments, however still have other days that are available.

21st June 2012 Kieren Reynolds Absent!

26th of June 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today during outreach we started our meeting by going through the submission proposal and activity form. We discussed this and went through all of the dates that we will be able to go to the library on, to do our activities with the children that attend these days at the library. Today we also made a video where we talked about our aim and purpose of going to the library also our values and temperaments that make up our group Stand Up! After making our video we had to write the place that we will be going to (library) on a piece of paper as we heard that the teachers will have to go to the place we will be going to and see if it is suitable for what we are doing. When we had a meeting with Miss Williams she told us to talk about what sort of questions we will be asking the lady at the library and to also expand on the different games and books that we will read and do with the children. Also to ask questions about what sort of things Ms Bell recommends us to read and do with the children. We are going to show her our program we come up with and see if she decides any changes to add in or not.

26th June 2012 Chantelle Didus Today in our Outreach group we started off with going through our proposal & activity submission forms.We revised through our dates so we can speak to the lady at the library this afternoon at 3.30pm we have an appointment with her to speak about our program and what we do.Hopefully after the meeting they can give us a promotion in the library so younger kids can come to our program.

26th June 2012 Renee Pace Today in our outreach group, we started off by going through our proposal and activity submission form. We had to make a video with photo booth talking about our group and what we were doing. We also had planned to go to the library afters school and habe a meeting with a lady named Mandy. We also had a meeting with ms Williams and she spoke to us about the questions we will ask and how to respond to what the lady will say. We decided to show our proposal and outline to Mandy. We also made up an agenda. I feel that we worked well as a group and will hopefully go well when attending the meeting after school.

26th of june 2012 Nelson Quintas Today we have spoke to each other about the meeting at the Library with Ms Bell. We are meeting up with Mandi Bell from Child Services at the library. We had a meeting with Miss.Wiiliams to focus on the activities we are going to do with the younger kids, she told us to expand on our ideas and come up with q uestions to ask her at the library.

26th of June 2012 Kieren Reynolds on our 5th lesson i got told what we did last lesson because i was away. we did a video of what we are and what we hope to achieve this year. we are going to the library to read to little kids. because that relates to our values. because that relates to our values we are going to put in our proposal to see if we are allowed

31st of July 2012 Renee Pace Today was our first lesson of term 3. We firstly all got the news that due to government laws, we couldn't go ahead with our plans to go to the library. The reason to this was because of safety regualtions. Because of this, the teachers have decided to create a festival where every group has a stall in which we promote our organisation. Because our group originally didn't have a charity to work with, we had to pick a charity that we all believed in and that we shared our values with. In the end we decided to work with Camp Quality who work with kids with cancer and bringing back the fun and life into them. We also had to do a lot of paperwork to get this up and running. We are currently working out the stall and what we're going to do.

31st of july Kieren Reynolds this lesson we had a meeting with miss williams. we talked about some of the ways we can help the community. we chose that were going to nice random acts of kindness. we are thinking about doing something with the elderly or young children. when we know that we started to research. we visited the website of melbourne council. we brought out an e-mail to the local library. we might be going to help little kids by reading to them.

31st of July 2012 Chantelle Didus In this OutReach session we found out that the strict laws of the Governments excursion rules for school have been changed and it was on the edge of impossible to go and put into action our plan for the Library.After that we were told that we need to start up a new plan for our new program.This event that we are creating is a fate project and we are going to set up stalls to promote our certain charity.We decided to help Camp Quality and create a fundraiser for them and donate to their organisation.Nicole & I contacted Camp Quality and we spoke to the ladies secretary, she was currently in a meeting so we couldn’t get a response straight away so we are waiting on a phone call back.I believe we should help this organisation because we have the same beliefs and qualities.

31st of July 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today in our first outreach lesson of term 3 we found out that no groups will be able to go out on there excursions that were planned to help there schools and fundraisers. The reason for this was because of the new government laws that were recently put into place. The teachers tried to find a way around this however it was impossible to change this, we had to accept the fact that we have to stay in school grounds. After we found out about this we e mailed Ms Bell telling her the situation and how thankful we are for the opportunities she was willing to give us. we were very disappointed about this and now we have to come up with another idea. We were also told that we will be holding a festival at the end of the term and will have to promote out fundraiser to the rest of the school. We also found an organisation called camp quality where they help children with cancer. Chantelle and I called up this organisation and the lady I spoke to said that we will need to speak to this lady Emily Werner, however she was in a meeting at the time. she will contact us when she has a chance. We have also reserved the hall for us to hold our stall at. We are now thinking of what we can hold at our stall.

7th of August 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today in outreach we started by calling up emily werner from camp quality as we called her last week and she was unavailable at that time so she called back and left a voice mail for Ms Williams to call her back. Today this is what we did, we spoke to her about how we want to help raise funds for Camp Quality and if she had any fundraiser suggestions on how we can help do this at our stall. She took down my e-mail address and emailed me some documents about fundraiser ideas, I thanked her for this and her help and support. Today we also got an area where we will be holding our stall, this will be under the year 9 shade sales. We were also thinking of ideas on what we could sell at our stall to not only raise money but aware people about cancer and how Camp Quality help these people with this life threatening condition. We are hoping that we will be able to raise money for them so that the children and adults there can have an even bigger smile on their faces everyday.

7th of August 2012 Renee Pace Absent (production day)

7th of August 2012 Chantelle Didus Absent (production day)

7th Of August Kieren Reynolds today we called a person from outreach called emily warner, we spoke to her about how we want to help raise funds for Camp Quality. She took down nicole’s my e-mail address and emailed her some documents about fundraiser ideas. we also got an area where we will be holding our stall, we are in the year 9 shaded area. We are hoping that we will be able to raise money for them so that the children will have a smile.

14th August 2012 Renee Pace Today I learnt that school is important to every ones lives. As a year level, we had the privilege to listen to numerous guest speakers for a long amount of time. We listened to police officers, ex police officers, footy players and more people with important jobs. I learnt that there is a lot of violence to our generation on the streets. there was a quote that was said 'our generation makes up 20% of our world, it will make up 100%' That quote stood out to me as I believe if most of our generation doesn't get the right amount of generation, it will affect the next generation to come. We learnt that to get what you want you need to be determined and will have to sacrifice a lot of stuff. I also learnt that there are alot of helpful people that will help make our world a better place, one person at a time.

14/08/12 Chantelle Didus Today we were invited to a Youth Summit run by the 20th Man Fund and Les Twentyman.Through this event we had a couple of guest speakers they spoke to us about what there orga nisation does or shared their stories with us about what they have witnessed in their position, Pat Boyle had some terrible stories about the gangs which made me very aware about the suburbs and how close the situations are happening to me.I learnt that if you don’t apply yourself at school and have an open mind you can’t help yourself in the future.

14th of August 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today in DEAL we had a youth summit run by the 20th man fund and Les Twentyman. During this summit we had some guest speakers talk to us about different things like education and staying in school. They told us stories about gangs and other inspiring stories. They spoke to us about how just one small act can help a very big cause. listening to the guest speakers was really interesting as some of them gave us examples and real life stories. this was something all of the students could relate to because it showed that it was something that was happening to us right now.

21st of August 2012 Renee Pace Today in deal, our group really worked hard and split into three groups. Firstly, Nicole and Chantelle worked on emailing back the person that they spoke to on the phone and through email. Johnny and I worked on completing the evidence guide and Kieren and Nelson worked on the stall design and developing posters. After working on all that, we had a meeting. We have decided and wrote down all of our conversation on google docs. We have gone with the theme of yellow as that is the national colour of camp quality. We were thinking of decorating our area (the year nine lockers) with yellow streamers, balloons with the logo on them (we have emailed to get them) and to have a activity where we take a photo of the students whilst jumping with a yellow background saying camp quality.We have worked out that the photo printed out and given to the students will cost $1. Overall our group worked really well, got to use different internet sites such as google docs and Skype. When using our timeline, we are right on date and will be prepared for the festival promoting our organisation 'Camp Quality.'

21st of august 2012 nicole camilleri today in outreach i think we got through a lot of work and our stall is finally making some sense and coming into place. we all worked together but on different stuff. Chantelle and i worked on emailing back emily werner as we have decided to do the fundraiser which is yellow day for camp quality. we found out that camp quality will be able to supply us with resources like balloons and banners which will be free of cost. we have all decided that our stall we be all yellow and we will have various activities that can get students involved and will hopefully also help us raise those funds for camp quality. also this lesson johnny and renee worked on the evidence sheet nelson and kieren worked on ways to make our stall look awesome and really eye catching. we then gathered together and spoke about the activities we would like to do. there were things like a photo booth sort of thing and also selling tattoos. today was a very productive lesson and skype was a great way that we used to communicate with ms williams easily. we also filled out the registration form which will be looked over by ms williams and then sent off to emily werner at camp quality so we can continue to raise funds for them.

DEAL 28/08/2012 Chantelle Didus Today in our DEAL lesson we decided to promote camp quality by using chalk and drawing the logo and the words “Camp Quality or Laugh ” we decided to do this so we can organise to promote Camp Quality and we used Skype a lot to communicate to Miss.Williams & our group who was outside drawing stuff on the concrete to do with Camp Quality.We are now working on an our ideas to keep people entertained and coming to our stall.

28th of august 2012 Nicole Camilleri Today in outreach we ha to find a way to promote our stall/ fundraiser. Our group; stand up did this by writing with chalk on the ground around the stall with things saying stuff like smile for camp quality and laugh for camp quality also smile and have fun and laugh. Today we also emailed Emily Werner from Camp Quality the fundraising registration form to tell her how we will be raising funds for Camp Quality. We also come up with ideas like having a jelly bean guessing competition for 20c and whoever guesses the amount in the jar get to have the whole jar of jelly beans. we also spoke about putting streamers up as well as balloons and found out that all of the resources we get from Emily will be free of charge. We will be getting things like a camp quality banner as well as bookmarks, tattoos, balloons and a money tin. using skype to communicate with Ms Williams was very helpful this lesson as there was some of us inside and some of us outside which was good because be could still talk to the rest of the group while they were outside.

28th of August 2012 Renee Pace Today in our deal class we first started with a meeting. We assigned people to do different things where Chantelle and Nicole work on the paper work and the rest of our group worked on advertising our organisation. We discussed different things that we could do but went with the idea of getting chalk and decorating the outside floors with the words camp quality, laugh, laughter is the best medicine etc. After we got the ok and chalk we headed off outside to work on our advertising. We then did this till the end of period 4. The artwork looks really great and is such a different idea from just using posters to get peoples attention. At lunch time we saw heaps of people looking at the artwork and discussing it. After lunch we had another meeting on google docs planning on coming up with ideas for our stall and still working on the evidence. Now we are up to date with our timeline and will ve working very hard next tuesday!

4th September 2012 Chantelle Didus Today in DEAL we continued on with our out reach program.Today we started off on our google docs deciding what we would do for our stall, keeping in mind that we only have 2 weeks to make our stall happen and how we are going to involve and bring people towards our stall.I suggested music, I suggested this because music draws most people in we also decided to do other activities like Jelly Bean Competition, Photo Booths and things that will draw people into get some things.So for our Photo Booth we are making templates of crazy hair and people will take photos with them but a cost will be involved then after taking it, it will be printed at the end of the day and give out the next morning or so.We also contacted another lady called Lynn to help us out with CQ merchandise because Emily is currently away on holidays.So we rang up Lynn and she is going to send out the stuff we need today and hopefully get it by the end of the week.

4th September 2012 Renee Pace Today in DEAl we worked on organizing our stall for the festival. We all worked out that we had the space outside of the year nine lockers so we went outside and had a look at it. We worked out that we wanted to have a activity that involved a line of posters that had a hole for the students face. Once we take the photo, we will print it out and give it to them the next morning. The photo will look funny as the person will look as if they have crazy wild hair or even a big top hat. So we spent a lot of the lesson making the posters which was hard considering the wind was crazy! We also called up a lady that works at camp quality and asked when our stuff that we ordered would come. We had a meeting at the start of the lesson too. Over all we are nearly ready to present our stall.

4th of September 2012 Nicole Camilleri today in deal we decided to do a photo taking thing where we have peoples faces in the center of paper, however we did not go through with this because it did not look very presentable. we had a meeting and spoke about what sort of activities we will be holding and came up with the jelly bean idea. after school we went to CS square and bought stuff for our stall like streamers, jelly beans and a table cloth we bought this by all putting in some money. we got through a lot today and using skype to communicate made things a lot easier because if we were outside we could tell Ms Williams what we were doing and where we were in the yard.

11th of September 2012 Renee Pace Today in DEAL we had to organize the paper work and complete the preparation for the stall. We had a meeting at the start of a lesson and worked out that the photo booth idea wouldn't work as its too much trouble to print out the photo and track who's who. We then went and found the stuff that we had ordered. We now have a banner, tattoos, balloons, pamphlets and bookmarks. We worked out the prices to which we are going to sell them. We went around and put up the posters that we had provided for us. We even put more chalk on the floor to advertise. We completed a lot of the evidence sheet and just need to fill out the rest, otherwise we are done and ready to present our stall and raise awareness for the organization 'Camp Quality.' Overall I am proud of my group as we have managed to complete a lot of work in a short space of time and are prepared enough to have our stall!

11th of September Nicole Camilleri Today in DEAL we had outreach and continued to prepare for our stall. today we received the two packages from camp quality which had balloons, tattoos, brochures, pamphlets and a green camp quality banner. today i spoke to a lady from camp quality regarding the note that was inside the package. i spoke to her about this and she said we will have to send them any receipts we have from stuff we have brought and send them to her with the banner and monies we have raised when we are finished with our stall. I have counted the jelly beans and am going to buy some more to fill the rest of the jar. today we put more chalk on the ground around the school and we also put up some of the posters we received in the package with the date of the stall. during the rest of this week i will bring in the jelly beans, streamers and table cloth we bought to make sure we have it ready to go for next week.

18th of September Nicole Camilleri Today we had our outreach festival. We didn't raise a whole lot of money however we know that what we did raise will help those from the charity, Camp Quality. We put up balloons and played music to make our stall fun and attractive. We had brochures and bookmarks to hand out as well as selling tattoos. We had our guessing jelly bean competition which
