The year has started well with the student cohort voting in their year level representatives during a Beyond Tomorrow session. There are six students per year level plus the four executive team of Sakina Qambari and Lachlan Goody (student leaders) and Armandeep Kaur and Alex Teakle (deputy student leaders). Three other year 12s have also joined to support them. I will be the staff facilitator this year with some other staff looking to support.

I have met with the executive team and have planned our first meeting.

The students decided upon four main areas of development. These are:

• Fundraising & Events
• Arts & Culture
• Sports Activities
• Environment & Facilities.

Students brainstormed all the things they wanted to improve, plan and achieve this year.

We have held another meeting so that each team could develop their action plan for the year. Students divided their plans into short, medium and long term goals. This allows them a chance to achieve some quick wins and have some more time to plan for longer term actions.

Students have already run the Sports Day BBQ and taken a ‘clock audit’ around the school. They were also a big part in planning for Harmony Day, which was celebrated at the assembly last Friday.

Further plans and ideas have been presented to both the principal and to the staff leadership team.

Mr. Evans also presented the idea of beginning to upgrade our school values so that students, staff and parents all have a say.

The SRC was made aware that Renmark High School would be celebrating its 100^th year in 2025 and while some may not still be in attendance, there would need to be some planning started to support this event.
