The New Leadership Team At Smithfield
Staff and students at Smithfield State High School have elected their student leadership teams for 2022.
Senior School Captains are Dany Carline and Robert Dixon. Vice-captains are Jessica Roe and Rin Chaiwangban.
Junior School Captains are Eliza Schneeberger and Ryan George. Aimee Forno and Nicholas McCree have been appointed Vice-captains. Principal, Frank Brunetto, said student Captains were an important part of any school leadership team and it was important that they had the right leadership skills. These included: self-development and the development of others; teamwork; strategic thinking and acting; ethical practice and civic mindedness with innovation.
“Our newly elected leaders of Smithfield State High School exhibit and demonstrate these qualities and have been active members of the student leadership groups throughout high school. As conduits between our students and staff, our student leaders develop representative qualities as the year progresses,” he said.
To be elected students had to self-nominate, then prepare and deliver a campaign speech in which they outlined their suitability for the role.
The Captains and Vice-Captains will represent Smithfield State High School at events throughout the year and will also be an important connection between students and the school administration.
