SADD Introducing the 2015 MAC SADD committee led by Bronnie Ormandy and Katie Thompson. The SADD committee is also made up of Year 12 and 13 students; Brynee Wilson, Aoife Baker, Ella Hughes, Adele Thomson, Sarah Cooper-Slee, Petra Shotwell, Nina Bowley, Erin Greenwood, Lucy Hayes and April Carter. SADD stands for Students Against Dangerous Driving and our committee is one of many in schools across New Zealand. SADD raises awareness and educates drivers within our school and local community about the dangers of driving. These include weather conditions, drink driving, distractions, speeding and reckless driving. SADD aims to reduce the harm caused on our roads by dangerous drivers by educating young people about the risks. This year we have been focusing on driving issues that are more relevant to our community and have organised events which raise awareness in a practical and interactive way for MAC students. In October, MAC students witnessed an extremely realistic (mock up) crash scene outside the school office which provided an example of what can happen if bad decisions are made whilst driving. Our committee also presented in assemblies, using effective methods including awareness videos to get the school to understand the level of impact that dangerous driving could have on people. “empowering, impactful, brilliant” Ra Anderson Although the crash was a challenge and a lot of work to organise/plan (with the help of local emergency services), watching the reactions of the students we believe that it definitely paid off. Hopefully more young people will now realise how common the dangers of driving are in New Zealand for people of our age. Katie Thompson
