One Day of Positivity

Hi everyone, I’m Jaimie and I will be completing my internship at the Australian Education and Leadership Centre apart of the One Day of Positivity Campaign Team.

My first day was very exciting and I loved dressing up in a corporate outfit.

To start of the day we met the other interns and got to know everyone around the office, we set up our own email accounts as well as learning how to use the photo copier and binding and laminating machines, which will come in handy later on in life.

As this was the first year of the campaign on the first day it was already our job to start spreading the word and we were linked to the Facebook page and began inviting everyone to like our page that was filled with interesting facts about positivity, inspirational quotes, details about the campaign and a percentage of the news that week that was negative or positive.

Our campaign manager Jess knew that a part of the campaign was going to be a family friendly treasure hunt, so we call began googling some ideas and found out that a catching treasure hunt was temporarily in place and one clue was near the office, so we set off to the east Perth train station and as a team looked for this clue but were unable to find it.

The next couple of days were also exciting as me and my team member Kristal began to write out events plan and everything that we needed to be aware of to make this campaign a success also focusing on crisis management.

I then interviewed Tracey about what the campaign was all about and wrote a feature article for the FIFO magazine about the one day of positivity.
