2024 Primary School Madrichim

Shabbat Shalom le’kulam

We are the Primary School Madrichim for 2024 and we are incredibly excited to take on this role. Year 6 has just taken part in the annual Leadership Development Training week and we have learned skills to assist us with teamwork in school and later in life.

Students have been introduced to their leadership roles and their mentors and we have started working on different projects and initiatives. These skills will help turn us into young leaders, as we transform into High School, with larger roles and responsibilities to prepare for further commitments in life. As Madrichim, we work with each other to add initiatives to Primary School, along with leading Years 3-6 in assemblies. Since Year 6 students are now young leaders in our community, you’ll hear more from different Primary Leaders such as House Captains, Jewish Life Leaders and our Chess Leader throughout the year.

What a term we’ve had so far! With the Swimming Carnival, Clean-up Australia Day and the general excitement of a new year, it sure has been a wonderful experience. For Clean-up Australia Day, we implemented a clean-up Emanuel Week, where we judged different years based on the cleanliness of their assigned areas. Congratulations to the winners! The Swimming Carnival was a blast with the House Captains running the cheering, keeping up the spirit and participation to gain points for their House. Congratulations to Monash House for taking the victory!

The Madrichim are working on different initiatives such as Pesach skits based on The Leader in Me and even a new JCA-athon for this year.

We look forward to sharing these great events with you in the future!
