Student Representative Council
The SRC provides an avenue for students to express views and become part of the decision making process with regards to issues that affect the student body. It also provides an opportunity for students to take on leadership roles and be responsible for actioning initiatives.
Students from Year3 to Year 6 are eligible to be on the SRC. One male and one female student from each year group are selected from their peers each Semester. Staff members support and guide the SRC members and the meetings.
Some of responsiblities of the Council are:
