Student Leadership Commissioning

On Friday 30 August the College inducted the new student leaders for 2019 – 2020.

At this commissioning the current student leaders were acknowledged for the role they have played over the past twelve months in serving the College community and they in turn welcomed the new leaders who would be taking up the challenge to be the next leadership team.

The focus of this commissioning was ‘servant leadership’  - that modelled by Jesus Christ, whereby the students in accepting the role of leader are asked to “ use the authority entrusted to them to serve others and to lead by example and teach others by word and deed”.

This year marked the first of the new student leadership model. The new roles will bring with them new challenges and so we wish them well as they lead the student body in continuing to make St Patrick’s a place where the voice of all is listened to and valued. Congratulations to the following students:

College Captain - Imogen M
College Vice Captain - Benedict - Jessica-Leigh R
College Vice Captain - Scholastica - Minduli T
Sports Captain - Ruby D
Performing and Creative Arts Captain - Paris H
Community Captain - Ellie F

Lord, give courage to these new leaders
that they may embrace their call to service.
Help them utilise their gifts and talents
to lead this community
in ways that are true to the Gospel.
Guide them as they strive to be leaders
filled with faith and hope.
May the blessing of Almighty God,
the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit
rest upon this community of St Patrick's
and remain with us always.
Amen

Karen Wright - Assistant Principal - Students
