It has been an eventful year both within and outside of the
Students Against Dangerous Driving committee. Despite
the many obstacles, the six SADD team members have been
able to band together to produce a multitude of activities
that were not only fun for our student body, but allowed us
to educate them on the principles of safe driving.
Overall, the SADD committee has had an amazing year in
which we ended up learning as much as we taught. It was
truly a hectic year both in and out of the SADD committee.

Our first activity as a committee was the SADD mural
in term two, during which we transformed the 200 block
hallways into a colourful and interactive tunnel of learning.
We painted the windows and walls with messages to the
student body instructing them as to our six main rules of
safe driving and providing them with space to leave their
thoughts and replies.
While the activity went well and we managed to create
something that will become a fixture of the school for
some time, we also learnt a lot ourselves about the timing
and advertising of activities which made our other events
significantly more successful.
The other main event the team worked on was the term
three sausage sizzle. Over the course of one lunch time
our committee earned $111 for the national SADD charity
and handed out almost as many pamphlets. The committee
members donated the food so that the maximum amount
raised would go to the charity. Using the knowledge we
had gained from our previous event the committee made
use of an effective poster campaign and an ingenious idea
of toasting laser messages to make sure people knew what
their money was going towards.
