Braeside High School Week 3 Newsletter

26th September 2020

Dear Parent/Guardian,

We have successfully come to the end of week 3 of this term. It has been a busy week for our students and staff. I wish to thank you for your continued support.

Election of New Student Leaders

The first few weeks of each academic year are always marked with campaigns and elections at various levels. Being the time when new leadership teams are instituted, all students are taken through civic education on leadership during PSHE lessons. It is interesting to see many of our learners mount up campaigns to try and convince their colleagues of what they can do best for the benefit of the entire students body. The students voice has always been the student council. Through it, we have had suggestions that have informed the priority projects undertaken and have gone a long way in changing the face of the school.

We just concluded the class representatives elections and the following were elected to represent their respective classes.

We are also happy announce the school prefects for the 2020/2021 academic year. The school leadership team got their application letters and carried out interviews. Join me in congratulating them as they start their duties as prefects. For those who were not successful, I encourage them not to give up but try next time.

Have a good weekend.
