Community Management and Organizations 2
The audience
This report includes my volunteering experience in the Carlton South Public School. It
comprises school care for the students of age of 5-10. The activities involve playing with
children, looking after them, making arrangement in the hall before children came; making
everyone happy and friendly. This report also comprises the audience who were served
during the placement. The report further describes the disadvantage observed and the needs
of the clients to address during the placement. The community engagement theory is used in
the daily practices of the volunteering services. Finally, the recommendations are given to
improve community engagement in the daily practices.
The purpose
The disadvantage which was faced during the placement was related to the timing, safety
concern and curriculum. The disadvantage observed during the placement was that the
teachers were given no training. The emphasis was given on the pre-literacy skills. The kids
required addressing because of their behaviours such as crying, anger and frustration. It was
necessary to address students ageing 5-10 years and their parents during the placement.

the good business practices. The schools facilitate training for the volunteers to learn ethics
and social responsibility (Eriksen, 2018). It was believed that there was perceived
insufficiency in the degree of the incorporation of ethics and social responsibility into various
precise disciplines. The ethic described the good standard childcare practice which was used
by us. We had privileged access to the kids and in a position to power over them; therefore
we had ethical responsibilities for the welfare of the kids. The emphasis was made on the
needs of the children and their families (Kelly, Reushle,Chakrabarty and Kinnane, 2014). It
was our responsibility to provide settings to the children which are safe, healthy, cultivating
and responsive for each child. We were liable to establish and maintain programmes which
support children’s development and learning and help them to live, play and work
cooperatively. It was made sure that the children’s needs were first priority in the
administrative decision making. It was recognized that the wellbeing of the children cannot
