Head Boy and Head Girl positions
The 2019 Student Leadership team began its formation with the conclusion of the Head Boy and Head Girl voting process, which saw candidates present speeches on three different occasions to the Principal, Associate Principal and Heads of House, Year 11 Cohort and to the Senior School. Voting of short-listed candidates occurred which followed an interview with the Principal and Mr Wright (who was standing in for Mrs Shaw in her absence).
The quality of candidates was exceptionally high, and at every stage of short-listing, the decision was a difficult one.
I would like to thank all candidates who nominated for a position, either Head Boy, Head Girl Chapel Prefect, House Captain and/or Prefect.
Heading the student leadership team are these four students:
Head Girl – Emilie Foster
Head Boy – Keith Solly
Deputy Head Girl – Brooke Lamb
Deputy Head Boy - Uveshan Boodhram
Congratulations to Millie, Keith, Brooke and Uvi. We look forward to you beginning your roles in Term 4 this year, after the Year 12 cohort complete Valedictory.
Chapel Prefect
Next year’s Chapel Prefect will be Amy Croker. This is an important role in the School, which can influence all sub-Schools. Amy will also find that she represents the School at many outside events, including events for all ASC Schools.
House Captains
The next stage is to select House Captains and Prefects. Some Houses followed a process of speeches and voting, or depending on numbers, the decision was simply as those who nominated becoming House Captain unopposed.
Congratulations to the following who students selected as the 2019 House Captains:
Cuthbert: Lidia Jones & Jake Durning
Durack: Ella Tudor-Roberts & Jack Dunne
Florey: Demi Blane & Jamie Anderson
Hollows: Bree Mays & Harry Walker
Lingiari: Jamie Berry & Rais Aluwi
Prefects
The number of prefects is capped at five, with a minimum of three. This year, it was a difficult choice as all candidates were strong and brought different skills to augment the Student Leadership group as a team.
Congratulations to the following students selected as a 2019 Prefect:
School Prefect:
Rachael Anderson
Lucy Fitzpatrick
Anirudh Mehta
Amy Vo
Simran Vyas
I wish the entire team of 2019 Student Leaders well for their new roles. Actually, they will find that their skills, energy and influence are required from Term 4 this year as they fill the void left by the current Student Leaders, all of whom carried out their duties superbly.
