School holidays are a great time to relax, but they can also be an opportunity to learn and grow. Here are three productive ways to spend your break:

 1. Explore a New Hobby

Dive into something you’ve always wanted to try, like learning a musical instrument or helping your dad go fishing. It’s a fun way to discover new interests and develop skills that you could later use to earn money.

 2. Take on a Holiday Job

Earn some pocket money by getting a holiday job. Whether it’s in a café or cutting grass in the yasa (neighbourhood), you’ll learn important skills like time management and responsibility while saving up for something special.

 3. Volunteer in Your Community

Use your time to give back by volunteering with the neighbourhood church or organization. It’s a rewarding way to make a difference, learn teamwork, and build connections that could benefit you in the future.
