Student Leadership

At Montrose Primary School, we believe that student voice and leadership are vital to a positive and inclusive school culture. Our Student Leadership Program provides opportunities for students to develop confidence, responsibility, teamwork, and active citizenship.

We encourage all student leaders to be role models who uphold our school values and positively influence their peers and the wider school community.

Student Leadership Opportunities Include:

• School Captains
  Our School Captains represent the student body at events, assemblies, and meetings. They demonstrate leadership across the school and work with staff to promote student voice and wellbeing.

• House Captains
  House Captains encourage participation, sportsmanship, and team spirit during sporting events and house activities. They help lead our athletics and cross-country events and support younger students during team-based activities.

• Student Representative Council (SRC)
  SRC are elected by their classmates and meet regularly to discuss student ideas, plan events, and contribute to school decision-making. They help organise fundraising initiatives and promote student wellbeing.

• Inspiration Leaders
  These students lead sustainability efforts across the school, including managing recycling programs, supporting the garden and compost systems, and promoting environmental awareness.

• Media Team
  Digital Technology Leaders assist with digital technologies during school events and support the use of devices in classrooms. They help promote safe and responsible technology use among their peers.

• Wellbeing Leaders
  These students help promote positive behaviour, and model inclusive and respectful interactions. Wellbeing Leaders run classroom meetings and assist students to problem solve any social issues that arise.

• Library Leaders
  Library Leaders play an important role in promoting a love of reading and supporting the operations of our school library. These student leaders are passionate about books and run our 'Open Library' sessions two times per week for students of any year level at lunchtime.
• Community Engagement Team
  The Community Engagement Team is made up of student leaders who are passionate about making connections between our school and the wider community. This team helps strengthen relationships with local organisations, support school events, and promote a positive school image.

We aim to empower students to lead with integrity, empathy and enthusiasm—both now and into the future.
