School Captains
Introducing our School Captains for 2022! Zoe, Luna, Mia and Merched (pictured in the banner above). They have some big plans for the school this year.
Hi I’m Zoe, and I’m one of your school captains for 2022. I’m super excited to be one of the leaders of the school, along with my other amazing captains. This year I hope to build the relationships between all year levels as well as between staff and students in order to make every member of our Coburg community feel welcome. I look forward to working with you all and hope to represent you to the best of my abilities.
Hey, my name is Luna. I am so excited to be working with our other amazing school captains to make this year memorable and fun for everyone. I am very passionate about music and the arts which is something I will prioritise in 2022 so always feel free to come and have a chat about that or anything else. I will also be focussing on creating more school and year level events, as well as building new traditions for our wonderful community here at CHS.
My name is Mia, I am one of the four incredible school captains we have for 2022. I am passionate about sport, particularly AFL as I am currently playing for the Northern Knights. I am looking forward to working alongside the other captains, we hope to plan fun days and initiatives to celebrate and further connect the CHS community.
Hi, my name is Merched I’m one of the school captains this year. I’m really excited to be part of of the team. We have great individuals working together to create big ideas for the school. We’re hoping to get more big team sports and after school clubs running in order for young kids to enjoy after school and even before school. I enjoy playing sports and I play AFL, so I can always help out with the sports. We have big things coming in future to help this school grow and we’re hoping to be successful. Thank you all and stay tuned.
