“Listening to students is key—they know the challenges and often have the best ideas for addressing them.”- David, Community Liaison Officer, Westfields Sports High School

“The skills students develop in the SRC—teamwork, confidence, respect—benefit them throughout their lives. When students become SRC reps, they come to school feeling braver and stronger—it changes how they walk.” – Carly, SRC Coordinator, Oxley Park Public School

I get to make decisions. We can have a bit more fun at school, like having special days and wearing casual clothes. We talk about what we should do, or what we should have at the school, and is it sensible. It’s good for kids to make decisions so they know how to make decisions when they grow up.
