Mission Statement
To promote hard work, discipline and respect for all members of the sixth
form community.
To create a sense of self fulfilment through service to others and giving to
charity.
To bridge the gap between upper and lower sixth students, that is, getting rid
of the ‘us versus them’ mentality.
To help sixth formers maximize their potential of being good examples to all
students of lower forms within the school.
YOUTH FOR TRANSFORMATION 2011
FEATURES AND MANIFESTO OF THE
ASSOCIATION The Sixth Form Association will operate for approximately 8 months; from
September 2011 to April 2012.
This association will seek to unify upper and lower sixth forms and involve
both groups in various activities, aimed at improving character and
enhancing discipline.
The association intends to raise funds through the sale of items at school,
association members and from corporate sponsors. These funds will be used
to institute scholarships for both upper and lower school students outside of
the sixth form community.
The association intends to award the first scholarship to a fifth former by the
end of October to help pay for his/her subjects then in January 2012 to either
a third former.
The association’s manifesto, will focus on volunteerism and donating to
charity (Children’s and Golden age homes) rather than just leisure activities
and by so doing help members to understand the value of giving.
Membership to the association will be open to all sixth formers, with
executives being chosen from both upper and lower sixth.
The executive body will include a President, two vice presidents; one in
charge of programs inside the schools and one for external outreach
programs, a Secretary and an Assistant, Treasurer and an Assistant, two
PROs from either form, one being in charge of upper school and the other
lower school.
The president will not be chosen from among the heads or deputies,
however, all other executive posts are open to those leaders.
It is the intention of the group to host meetings for an hour on Tuesdays at
3:05 pm in a room that is available for use. All meetings will be supervised
by teachers.
All outreach activities can be recorded on voluntary service cards which will
be made available to all association members.
