Rauchle Club

During 2003, Ms Nel Rauchle, a Guidance Officer at Mansfield High, had a dream to create an Interact Club at our School. She worked with several of our Year 11 students to this effect. However in September 2003, Ms Rauchle lost her battle with cancer. The Year 11 students in association with the Administration, chose to continue with Ms Rauchle’s dream and the Rauchle Service Club was founded and named in Ms Rauchle’s honour.

The Rauchle Club differs from an Interact Club in that all students from Year 7 through to Year 12 may become members and be involved in the Club’s activities. Senior students hold key positions each year and work with Service Prefects to guide club members. Regular meetings are held throughout the year. Members plan the causes that will be promoted, how to raise awareness and fundraise.

Since the Club’s inception, students have raised substantial funds for a variety of organisations. They have also contributed their time to helping others. Some of the recent fundraising projects include:

  • Guide Dogs, Queensland
  • CanTeen Queensland for teens with cancer
  • Headspace National Youth Mental Health Foundation
  • The Smith Family
  • 3rd Space
  • Emmanuel City Mission
  • Indigenous Literacy Foundation
  • Australian Conservation Foundation
  • Daniel Morcombe Foundation.​

Funds have been raised through raffles, chocolate sales, coin donations, our Homeless Drives and our annual Soap Drive.

In addition to raising funds, students have opportunities to be of service to others by volunteering to assist with events such as the Rotary Bookfests each year, Saturday excursions to Emmanuel City Mission, and with ORCA.

The Rauchle Club emphasises the importance of giving and serving others, all students are welcome to participate. Aside from meetings, participation at events count towards V@M points and for some events also count towards the House Cup.

Opportunities to participate are advertised in Student Notices, Weekly newssheets and on assembly. Further information is available by contacting Rauchle coordinators Mrs Bridon or Ms Parsons​ via email.
