Student Leadership

Nominations for 2020 roles now open

The student leadership program reflects the need for all students to develop leadership skills and have opportunity to put these into practice.  Our domain leaders have been responsible for many new initiatives this year such as Languages Week, Science Week and Book Week. 

It's time for our current Year 7 to Year 11 students to consider getting involved for 2020. Role descriptions and nomination forms are now available.  All students are welcome to nominate. The program supports students to build their leadership skills, provides external training opportunities and encourages students to attend and represent MGSC at conferences.

With the exception of the VCE Committee and Year 8 Class Captains, all other forms are due by Friday September 20 (last day of term).

As Year 10 Leaders representing Mentone Girls’ Secondary College, Lily West (Middle School Captain) and Nisha Makam (Middle School Language Domain Leader) are participating in the Victorian State All Girls' School Conference.

This conference involves two Year 10 representatives from each of the seven state girls’ schools in Victoria. Within this, the 14 girls come together in Geelong (Matthew Flinders Girls' Secondary College) for four planning sessions where they plan, budget for and organise a conference to be held Monday 16 September.  As a part of the planning, a timetable is arranged, including two guest speakers, lunch and three activities relating to the overarching theme of ‘life skills’. The conference is accordingly named - Educate to Elevate with the aim to educate and empower young women about what their future can hold in terms of careers and equip them with the necessary skills.

This year, MGSC’s representatives are in charge of organising the showbags and therefore must acquire donations from a variety of small businesses and universities, each relating to the conference theme. On the day of the conference, there will be 15 students from each of the seven schools attending to enjoy a day of fun activities, teaching them important life skills for their future!
