Cranbourne North’s Tulliallan Primary School has announced their new school leaders for 2018.
The school presented 31 proud students with their leader badges at a special school assembly on Monday, 19 March.
Four school captains, eight house captains, eight specialist leaders and 11 Student Representative Council students were recognised in front of the school community.
The Year Six student leaders delivered a speech about their leadership qualties and how they upheld the school’s values of respect, relationships, responsibility and resilience.
Guest speakers, and inaugural 2017 school captains presented the badges to the leaders and also spoke to the audience of students and parents about the importance of leadership and the qualities needed to be a good leader.
Principal of Tulliallan Primary School Kathy Sharp said “Student leaders at our school are taught to influence others for the greater good for all.”
“The students develop positive relationships and show others how to share and role model and understandings of being a part of a school community,” she said.
Joshua, Dana, Sadaf and Nickau were selected as school captains.
Appointed as house captains were Zakary and Kishara (Rossiter); Wade and Lousia (Strettle); Shawn and Nazifa (Elder); and Davanga and Aedan (Mitchell).
Elected as specialist leaders were Mahin and Ranudi (Art); Wagar and Dulana (Music); Joanna and Ethan (Green Team); and Riley and Dhir (Digital Technology).
Ms Sharp said the school decided to hold leadership nominations at the beginning of the year to allow new students the opportunity to nominate themselves and demonstrate their leadership skills within their new school community.
