The Student Council purpose is to represent all students, providing a voice for the College community, to promote connection and growth with our peers with the aim of creating a safe and inclusive environment.
The Student Council is your voice at John Curtin! Representatives from every year group meet weekly to discuss student issues, plan exciting events, and work to improve our school community. We’re a friendly bunch and always happy to help new students find their way – just look for someone wearing a badge!
Being on the Student Council is a fantastic opportunity to make a real difference. It’s a rewarding experience that lets you shape what happens at John Curtin and develop valuable leadership skills. You’ll gain confidence, learn to speak in public, and discover how to effectively advocate for others. These are skills that will benefit you throughout your life.
Interested in joining? Elections are held in Term 1, while elections for Years 8-12 take place towards the end of the year, ensuring a smooth transition for the new council. The Student Council is one of the school’s key leadership opportunities – a chance to “go for it” and make a real impact.
