Senior Student Leadership

The student leadership team plays an important role in the organisation of the school.

Our student leadership team comprises of students from Grade 5 and 6. Students are required to apply for their roles and may complete a speech or interview to demonstrate their leadership qualities and how they represent the school values.

The two school captains and vice captains are interviewed and selected by the principal and leadership team members from a shortlisted group.

Our leadership group recognise students who are leading in all areas of the school. Students apply and are selected by a group of staff in the following specialist areas - Arts, Environmental, STEM, Numeracy, Literacy, Wellbeing Dog and Playground. We also have 2 peer elected captains to represent the five Sport Houses we have at Lucknow Primary School.

The student leaders are formally trained in public speaking, leadership and meeting procedures. The student leaders run the weekly school assemblies, special events and activities, and represent opinions on whole school issues.

Junior School Council

We also have a Junior School Council with representatives from Year 1 to 6. Junior School Council also run events, canvas ideas in the school and advise the student leadership team of issues and needs in the school.
The school principal, assistant principal and a designated staff member attend student leadership and Junior School Council meetings.
