Student Leadership

Student leadership is an essential part of school life at Williamstown High School. The leadership body is student focussed, energetic and led by our school captains at both the Pasco and Bayview Campuses.

Our Student Leadership Program is flexible and is adapted according to the needs of our ever changing student body. Our student leaders experience training to develop important leadership skills in public speaking, peer support, communicating and problem solving, all which will help them succeed in the school environment and beyond.

Our student leadership teams seek to:

  • Highlight new and existing opportunities for student voice to foster a sense of ownership in the school.
  • Increase student participation and engagement in the classroom and within the wider community.
  • Renew focus on house competition to foster a sense of school pride and spirit.

Events Committee

The House Leaders are role models for the school and for the students in their house. They aim to motivate and encourage house spirit as well as active participation in a range of activities and events.

Each curriculum area has captains to represent their subject area. These student leaders are passionate and have an interest in the subject area, work with the teacher on special projects/events and promote the work in their subject area.

The Junior School Council (JSC) is a student-led group that aims to understand the issues impacting students around the school, to problem solve and be an action research team and voice for the student community.

The Events Committee plays a key role in the organisation and implementation of events across the campus including fundraising and awareness events, celebration days and other special projects.

Homegroup Representative (1 student per HG)

Homegroup Representatives (or Homegroup Rep) are students that represent the class on numerous tasks, projects and events. They provide the connection between the student leadership teams and the homegroup. These students are able to attend meetings for the Junior School Council and Events Committee to share student ideas from their homegroups.
