Service Project Contract

What Might A Service Projects Look Like?
​

Academic 

Take a famous person, for example, an artist:
  • Find an artist that inspires you within any art strand.  
  • Research the artist and his or her work using the schools Inquiry Model.
  • Compose, design and produce an original and significant piece or work based on the artist’s work in any of the Art strands.  
  • Play or demonstrate this work to an audience.

Community

Look at a community project: How you can make a difference to some person or group in the community?
  • Research it using the school’s Inquiry Model.
  • Write a proposal.
  • Get teacher approval.
  • Do it without fundraising for it at school.
  • Write a journal learning story or have a digital record of your achievement.

Invent A Sport

  • Write the rules of the sport.
  • Give it a name.
  • Teach it to a small group to ensure it works and review your model before teaching it to a larger group.
  • Writing up the training and coaching model you will use.
  • Train for it within your class or team or another team within the school.
  • Keep a journal of the learning journey you have undergone.
  • Use the school’s Inquiry Model to gather, organise, synthesise and evaluate the information.
  • Celebrate this through a demonstration workshop or a tournament.

Independent Investigation

This could be in the following areas – Maths, English, Science, second languages, enterprise project or a business project.
  • This investigation begins with a hypothesis or a question
  • Devise a methodology to test your hypothesis to answer your question.
  • Use the school’s Inquiry Model to gather, organise, synthesise and evaluate information.
  • Present your findings and celebrate your achievement or organise an event to demonstrate to an audience what you have done to make a difference.

Community Service

  • Mentor a child in Year 4 or below for two terms.  The evidence for this will be a journal of the interactions and an interview with the child concerned or a booklet you have prepared for the child.
  • Be nominated by a staff member for making a difference by being involved in a community service either within or outside the school. A learning story is to accompany this.

These are just some ideas. You may have other ideas which interest you. Use the contract to write them up and discuss with Mrs Burnside.
