Aurora Leadership Program

For the last two months I've been going to a leadership program. This program is held at central school. Koka Rebecca is running the program. The students in this program are from 15 different schools around the gisborne district.

We have been learning about leadership but we are also going to give back to our community by fundraising as much money as we can for Planet Sunshine. The children's ward at our local hospital.

We have found that  activities for families visiting and patients are very limited play areas so we will be making a new playground to help make there stay more enjoyable. We have already visited the Botanical gardens to see what equipment we could get.

When we went to the Botanical gardens we found lot's of great play equipment. The only thing is safety. But when we were there a few of us talked to some parents and families about what they thought of some of the equipment.

So far we have fundraised $240 from a school dress up day. There will be more fundraisers happening at school coming up soon. When we go to Planet Sunshine in August we will be presenting all our money and donations to them. As well as a group of new toys and books for things in the waiting area.

I hope you liked learning about my learning that I've been doing, and that you comment if you have any other questions.
