In Week 8 of this term, all of our Year 9 students completed their Peer Support Training in order to learn more about how to be an effective leader. Students undertook a range of activities focusing on communication skills, teamwork and the different styles of leadership. At the end of the training, students could apply to be a Peer Support Leader to support the incoming Year 7 students in 2022. 

We had a number of amazing students apply for the 6 positions available in each House, to the point where we could have easily chosen many more. To the students who just missed out on being chosen, we encourage them to engage with the other opportunities in leadership that arise throughout the new year, from participating in Roundsquare Conferences to nominating for the students committees that support the Year 12 Captains in their respective roles. 

Congratulations go to the following students who are our Yr 10 Peer Support Leaders for 2022 -

Cottee House - Rataj Abdullah, Lily Geddes, Clare Kelly, Ella Butler, Aaliyah Meek and Indigo Savage.
