It's only fun if you want it to be

Hey again everyone!

It has just past day 7 of my internship at The Global Good Foundation and I am absolutely enjoying it. Since the first week, I've gotten follow ups from interviews and I'm on to constructing a press release alongside getting primary schools from Rockingham and Freo to join in our Minute Of Noise campaign which will begin in the next semester.

The Global Good Foundation is currently planning up a camp that will be taking place in April. It's a 4 day 3 night camp planned with jammed packed fun activities for children who have been affected by domestic violence. The response has been far better than we all expected! It's so good that Tanya had to come up with a waiting list as all the spots have been filled up. The camp's are going to be great. I'm honestly excited. Tanya has a whole range of activities planned out for the kids that will help them in self esteem building, teamwork and learning to trust.

Last week on Monday, my supervisor Tanya told my colleague Danielle, Global Good volunteer Kennah and I to come in our best camp gear as there was a photographer coming. We headed to camp site to scout for activity locations, speak to the care taker and to mostly check out the facilities available. The Kwinana Courier's photographer Neil greeted us upon arriving and began taking photos of the three of us. The article was pieced together and appeared on last Friday's edition of the Kwinana Courier! It was definitely a fun day out of the office.

From what I've learnt so far is that PR isn't just about media releases or making checklists for events. There are so many different areas of PR you can touch on. I've been having the most fun at my internship doing interviews, invitations, doing rsvp for events and communicating with principals or schools and counsel members I never thought I would.

It's already coming to the end end of week 6.

We're all half way through the semester! I hope everyone of you are enjoying your placements and don't forget to make the most out of it. Have a great weekend and semester break!

I'll definitely update soon.
