School Captains
Each year, the Year 5 and 6 students elect Year 6 students to the important role of School (and Vice) Captains. Being selected as School Captain is a privilege and an honour at our school, the student / students selected as School Captains are chosen on the basis of being exemplary students, roles models and Exford citizens.
The School Captains are awarded their badges at a special Assembly and then throughout the year, they work with the Principal in planning for and presenting our Assemblies. The School Captains have other special duties, for example, they greet official visitors to our school and act as guides.
School Ambassadors
Year 5 and 6 students also have the opportunity to be elected as a School Ambassador. We offer these roles in the following areas:
- School Values
- Arts
- Special Events
- PE
- Knitting Club
- Prep Support
Whole School Assemblies
We hold a ‘Sharing’ Assembly each week (Friday afternoons), which incorporates student leadership and public speaking, and presenting awards, such as Student of the Week awards. Photos of our Students of the Week are displayed on a special noticeboard each week. We hold our Christmas concert at the end of the year along with our Year 6 Graduation afternoon/evening.
We also hold a short Assembly on a Monday morning to welcome in the school week and sing our national anthem ‘Advance Australia Fair’.
We welcome our parents to take part in both Assemblies, particularly our Friday celebration Assembly.
