Student Representative Council 2021
The Student Representative Council (SRC) provides all students at GEPS with a voice
At the beginning of 2021, each Year 1-6 class selected two representatives to be part of the SRC. Together with Mrs Faghani and Mrs Hill, the SRC meet once a week to discuss issues relevant to GEPS. It is the duty of the SRC representatives to report back to their classes about relevant matters discussed and seek input from their class members.
Our Purpose is to:
- Discuss main issues and be responsive at SRC meetings
- Make the school a better place
- Take on a leadership role within the school community
- Support our school and community (fundraise for important issues).
A major focus for the SRC at GEPS is to raise funds for the school and the community. Our events in 2021 included:
- Celebrating Harmony Day by wearing orange – we raised $124 for playground equipment for our school.
- Selling morning tea items for Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea to raise money for The Cancer Council – we raised $314 to assist with cancer research and support programs.
- We participated in Walk Safely to School Day where all primary school children were encouraged to walk safely to school to promote a healthy lifestyle. Students received stickers to acknowledge their participation.
