2021 Student Representative Council (SRC) Information for parents 27th January 2021 Assalamu Alaykum, Dear Parents, This year, Bellfield College Junior School will have an official student leadership body, comprised of the Student Representative Council (SRC) and our executive student leadership team (Year 6 School Prefects and School Captains). The student leadership team will be supported by the Student Leadership coordinator, Mrs Hioki. Students elected as SRC members will be role models for other students and will be expected to uphold school expectations to an extremely high standard. They will work closely with the executive student leadership team. Their behaviour, attitude to work and appearance must be exemplary, and we expect our leaders to represent the school positively in the local and wider community. One student per year level will be elected. The elected student will hold the title for the whole school year. To be elected as a member of the Student Representative Council students must: ● ●
