Students leading within
Benalla P-12 aims to provide quality opportunities for each student to develop a range of leadership capabilities. Leadership programs cultivate self-reliance, confidence, self-esteem, appreciation for lifelong learning, creativity, conflict resolution, communication and team building skills – all extremely important skills and abilities for our students……our future leaders.
School Captains and Leaders
Our College Captains and Vice Captains are elected by staff and their peers through and extensive selection process. They lead the students community, run numerous events and represent the school.
There are opportunities for leadership within the Middle school with leaders being elected at all year levels.
At our P-6 Campus there are four school leaders from the Year 4 group elected by their peers each term. Leaders host our Campus assemblies, assist with a variety of responsibilities and meet with the Campus Principal on a regular basis.
House Captains and Vice Captains
House Captains and Vice Captains are elected each year from our Senior Years to lead each of the four houses –Buffalo, Buller, Hotham and Stirling– in each of the sporting competitions and carnivals. Captains and Vice Captains assist the Sports Coordinator in ensuring student entries into events, organising relay teams as well as leading, encouraging and motivating students in their House.
