On Tuesday, August 18 the Interact Club hosted a trivia event in Nindethana to raise money for the Trinh Foundation, which is an organisation that is dedicated to supporting Vietnamese people and families. Not only did the trivia raise money for the foundation; it also helped students engage and connect with each other and form a sense of unity and belonging under the thrill of competition.
The process of answering questions was simple. Students in groups were to discuss and write their answers on a slip of paper under a time limit and then raise up their papers for Interact Members to come around and check their answers and call out group numbers to whoever got it correct and tally up points across the 13 questions.
As the event concluded, it was down to two groups to take the trivia crown. It was decided by a final tiebreaker question planned beforehand. To anyone’s surprise, both groups answered correctly.
We would also like to thank the following:
- Interact Club Executive Team
- The group of Interact Club students running the stalls
- Kaitlyn of 12A
Overall, the Interact Club’s lunchtime event was undoubtedly successful, sales profiting at $96 from all the items that were sold. All profits were donated to the Trinh Foundation.
