Leadership Program

Leadership Program

Students at Immaculate Heart College are provided with the opportunity to impact their school community through leadership initiatives. Our student leadership program facilitates a structure for students to: 

• Identify and develop leadership skills 
• Understand the importance of servant leadership 
• Model their leadership on Jesus Christ, the ultimate leader 
• Be passionate about creating culture and identity 

Primary – Year 6 Student Leadership Ministries

At Immaculate Heart College, we believe in empowering our Year 6 students to lead with courage, integrity, and compassion. Our Leadership Program offers students the opportunity to take on key roles that shape the culture and spirit of our school community.

Each year, we appoint a Head Boy and Head Girl, who serve as positive role models for their peers. Alongside them, students can step into leadership roles within their faction, with two leaders for each of the four factions: Fortitude, Justice, Prudence, and Temperance.

Our program also nurtures leadership in faith and service with two Christian Ministry Leaders who support our school’s spiritual growth, and two Peer Engagement Leaders who promote a positive and inclusive school environment.

Our student leaders take on a wide range of responsibilities, including leading school assemblies, reading at Mass, organising clean-up afternoons, coordinating sporting games, assisting in the canteen, managing lost uniforms, supporting our school carnivals, and distributing and overseeing sporting equipment.

Moreover, our leadership program teaches students the art of professional communication with adults, helping them learn how to express themselves clearly and confidently. Through their roles, they also discover the profound value of selflessly dedicating their time to serve others, building leadership qualities that will benefit them throughout their lives.

Through this program, our Year 6 students not only develop their leadership skills but also foster a sense of responsibility, collaboration, and community—preparing them to make a positive impact now and in the future.

Secondary School – Student Council: Empowering Future Leaders

At Immaculate Heart College, we believe in fostering leadership skills and providing opportunities for our students to make a real difference.

Our Student Representative Council consists of exceptional young individuals who are chosen based on their outstanding qualities and dedication. Leading the council are our College Student Senior Leadership Team. The Council also comprises a student representative from each year level in Years 7 to 9, along with four Faction Leaders chosen from Year 10.

As part of our commitment to developing well-rounded leaders, the entire Secondary Student Representative Council have the privilege of attending the Youth Leadership Conferences each year. This enlightening event emphasises the importance of proactivity and provides invaluable opportunities for students to enhance their public speaking and leadership skills. By actively participating in regular Council meetings and honing their public speaking abilities at Secondary School assemblies, each student acts as a conduit for their respective year group, bringing forth innovative ideas and addressing pertinent issues.

At Immaculate Heart College, we empower our students to embrace leadership, seize opportunities, and create positive change. Join our Student Representative Council and embark on a transformative journey towards becoming the strong leaders of tomorrow.
