International Students 

2022 International Student Leadership team

The International Student Program (ISP) Leadership Team at Northcote High School has been created to include 5  students, with different strengths, different passions but the same mission, which is to build a very positive learning and social environment, and to represent and bring forward the voice of the international students, . This year our leaders are Kha Huynh; Christian Nguyen; Alan Huynh and Alissa Nguyen from Year 11 and Ivy Vo (Year 12) as our mentor.

Last week, our school organized an annual conference for all the Northcote Highschool Leadership. We were honored to meet Ms Peta Sirec, Ms Katie Archibald and our school Principal - Mr Jones.  It was more than a meeting, it was an opportunity for everyone who is interested in developing their leadership skills. 

We had a great chance to meet last year's School Captains, to make new friends from other year levels, and  hear about their experiences and their project for the community, which was very inspiring. We were divided into groups from Junior to Senior Year and also the House Captains, so that we could share our ideas, our plans to contribute to the school and development of additional facilities in the remainder of 2022. 

We were able to share our ideas, our opinions with the aim of improving existing issues that were raised. We were so happy to become a part of the school leadership group and received our badges for the leadership roles.

On Friday 18th February, we had a meeting at the International Student Centre (ISC) in order to present ourselves – the 2022 ISP Leadership Team. Ms Hill introduced us to everyone and we spoke about ourselves and our ideas and aims. We were very grateful that everyone could spend time listening to us, so that both sides can understand more about each other. 

The International Students Leadership team will do our best, and put all our willingness and energy into our roles, not only for the ISC but importantly also for our school. 

Owing to the fact that COVID-19 is still a worldwide problem, we recommend you protect yourself and the community by wearing masks and sanitizing your hand regularly. Stay hydrated and healthy. 

We wish you the best and keep looking forward despite setbacks should they arise. Keep going and we wish you good health and success.
