Role of the Student Representative Council  


The role of the SRC is to represent the students needs and ideas, in order to improve the wellbeing of the student body. 

The SRC sprang into action in Week 4 of Term 1. The meetings were filled with many suggestions about how to improve the various play areas around the School. Representatives from each Year Group went away to survey their peers about different equipment and facilities that they would like included in the playground. Many students expressed the view that they would like more chill zones set up for various year groups, and more equipment provided for a variety of ages. 

Due to the School’s remote learning period, the SRC faced new challenges. It became difficult to meet and gather data from the student body and progress forward to make these ideas a reality. 

The Year 6 leaders worked together to create a special Gratitude Day for the Years K – 5 students. Our activities asked the students to design different parts of their ‘dream school’. The day was a huge success and enjoyed by all. There were heaps of creative suggestions such as ziplines, pools, food carts and many more. 

Now that we are back on campus for Term 3, we are hoping to continue with our initiatives and work hard to improve the playground for all students. We have received ideas about putting in equipment like monkey bars, swings and climbing equipment.

The SRC will continue to achieve goals and work hard for the Primary student body until the year is over.
