Senior Leadership Recognition

We come now to the recognition awards for our senior student leadership team. Firstly I will call on the Guest Speaker to present recognition awards to our four senior student leaders:

Each year the role of Head Girl, Deputy Head Girl, Sports Captain and Arts Director continues to grow both in scope and responsibility. The way in which these students perform these roles is enhanced by their vision and leadership. A bequest to the school from the Estate of Minola Grant has generously enabled the school to provide further recognition for our leaders as well as tertiary scholarship funding to be acknowledged later. I have pleasure in presenting Leadership medals to the student leaders. A presentation will be made on behalf of the student body that they have so ably led, by the incoming 2018 senior student leaders. I would ask the 2017 student leaders to stand forward and receive their medals from: 2018 Arts Director Katie Oliver

2018 Sports Captain: Angel Haeata-Burrows
