Taking Charge.

Award achieved 1
School Council:
I played an active role in proposing and advocating for key areas of focus within the school, including discipline, inclusion, culture, and sports. This position required collaboration with peers and school staff to initiate policies and activities that enhanced the overall student experience and promoted a positive school culture.
School Prefect
I was responsible for upholding discipline among students and leading fundraising initiatives. This included organising events and ensuring adherence to school rules.
Boarding House Head Prefect:
I focused on maintaining order and discipline within the boarding environment. I supported younger students, acted as a liaison between them and school staff, and contributed to creating a supportive and structured living atmosphere. I was based in the grade 8 and 9 boarding house, so the focus was on integrating the students with school life and the ethos of the school.
