Today our school had the privilege of watching the recorded speeches presented by 18 of our wonderful Year 5 students, who nominated themselves in the run for a Student Leadership position for 2027. We were incredibly impressed by their speeches, as well as how all of them have demonstrated fantastic leadership potential this year.

🌟 It gives us great pleasure to announce our elected Student Leadership team for 2027. 🌟

We know they will all continue to show exceptional leadership as they grow into their roles next year. Following the announcement, they all enjoyed the special tradition of phoning their parents from the Principal’s office to share their news.
