Student Councillors
Student opinion is valued. Student Councillors, including the
Head Boy and Head Girl, provide a liaison between staff and students.
Students from Years 9 to 12 are eligible to be Student Councillors
and their peers elect them to the positions. Through the Student
Council students are encouraged to explore their leadership potential
and develop their leadership abilities.
Tutor Groups These are formed for each Year Group. Each tutor group comprises 20-25 students, whose general care is the responsibility of a tutor group teacher who is available to the students to advise and listen to the their concerns. Over the year a warm, supportive relationship develops between teacher and students, and between students. Social Development
Social activities are an integral part of the development of the
individual. Pride in our school and its ethos is developed through
the many and varied social activities organised by the Year Co-ordinators,
staff and elected student Councillors. Some of the more notable
events on the school calendar are the Year 12 Ball, the Year 10
Dinner Dance, the end-of-year Physical Education dinner, carnivals
and river cruises. Students are encouraged to participate in these
events.
Senior Student Status As students progress through school they are expected to take more responsibility for their own education. The school acknowledges the importance of this process and have changed some procedures for Year 12 students so that they may exercise and accept more responsibility and at the same time enjoy some privileges that are offered to them appropriate to their increased maturity.
