Congratulations to all the Primary leaders elected
throughout last week. Every class has a Secretary and
a Sub-Secretary who are also House Captains for their
respective Houses. Two other Captains (or three if both
Secretary and Sub-Secretary are in the same House) are
then elected. These four (or five) student representatives constitute the Class
Council. From Years 2 to 5, the Class Council is elected for a semester. At
the start of Term 3, everyone gets another chance. In Year 6, the four House
Captains and the Primary Captain and Vice-Captain represent the whole
Primary school and are elected for the whole year.
The tasks and responsibilities of
student leaders vary as they get
older. All of them know, like Spiderman, that 'with great power
comes great responsibility' and
that they must make use of the
trust their classmates have placed
in them to help others and lead
by example. We are proud of our
student leaders for Semester 1 and
wish them luck in the fulfilment of
their duties.
