Year 9 participate in Project Penguin

An exciting program for year 9 students was launched in term one. Project Penguin gives 30 students the opportunity to give back to the community by being mentors to primary school classes as they collectively work together to promote awareness of the dangers to the local penguin community. 

This is a highly regarded leadership and team-management experience affiliated with Taronga Zoo. As well as engaging in training to become effective mentors, students also enjoy a day at the zoo learning about the penguins and other animals. 

In Term 2, students involved will visit Harbord and North Curl Curl Primary Schools for half a day each and offer their assistance, then at the conclusion of the program our MSC mentors will attend the celebration day at Taronga Zoo and see their groups present their endearing and informative presentation to a panel of Parliament, Community, Council as well as student members. 

This is a very popular program across all schools involved and we are very grateful that they have called on MSC again to participate in 2016.
