Prestigious selection for student William

Year 10 student Willam Kennedy from Brisbane Water Secondary College Woy Woy Campus has been selected for the NSW Minister for Education’s Student Representative Council.

This is a prestigious leadership opportunity where students directly work with NSW Education Minister Prue Car to influence education policy.

This Council, which works directly with the Minister and key education stakeholders, provides a platform for students to influence policy and advocate for improvements in the NSW education system.

Through discussions and consultation, members contribute to shaping school policies, ensuring student voices are heard at the highest level.

William’s selection is a significant achievement, as the process involves a rigorous interview and application phase, designed to identify students with strong leadership qualities, critical thinking skills, and a deep commitment to education.

This follows in the footsteps of 2023 school captain, Charli Grant, who also held this role, highlighting the strong leadership pipeline at the school.

Given the rigorous selection process, William’s achievement is testament to his leadership skills, passion for education, and ability to represent student voices at a state level.

William’s and Charli’s achievements highlight the strong leadership culture at Brisbane Water Secondary College, where students are encouraged to engage in decision-making at both school and state levels.
