2022 Student Leadership
Congratulations to our Year 5 students who were awarded positions of leadership in the 2022 school year. Once again we were very fortunate to have such a high calibre of student nominations and in most cases the leadership roles were sealed by 1 point difference. Students and staff voting were very close across all positions. The 2022 student leaders participated in a handing over ceremony during our end of school Mass today and will be awarded their school badges during our beginning of school year Mass in 2022.
- School Leaders Scarlett O’D and Summer M

- Environmental Leaders Indi L and Ayda L
- Eden House Leader Phoebe D

Our student leaders play a very important role in our school community. They are ambassadors and role models for our school and participate in many and varied activities from leading assembly each week, guided school tours, Mass Ministries, sporting events, growing and selling garden produce. I would like to acknowledge and thank our current Year 6 school leaders who have been exemplary role models to all students in our school community. We are very proud of the leadership potential and development of our students and the school values they display in their interactions and leadership roles.
