School welcomes new student leaders

St Philips Christian College Gosford’s senior school held a Dedication Service for its new student leaders recently.

“It was an important event that brought the school community together to witness and support the students as they embark on this next phase of their schooling,” said St Philips head of senior school, Mr Cameron Johnston.

“The new house captains, prefects and school captains all promised to work hard to represent the school well and to dedicate themselves to serving the student body,” Mr Johnston said.

Some of the student leaders were provided with an opportunity to develop their skills for life at school and the years to come by attending a leadership conference in Newcastle.

“By providing such opportunities as leadership training, our future graduates will be in a good position to make a positive difference to their communities in a range of areas beyond school,” he said.

The leadership conference was attended by almost 300 young leaders from a range of different schools.

“The students came away feeling inspired and motivated to think through new initiatives, to perform their roles with a positive attitude and to serve others with a faithful and supportive heart,” he said.
