On Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 February, the Serbian Vašar Festival in Keysborough brought the wider community together through traditional music, dance and food. Families and friends gathered to honour Serbian traditions, enjoying vibrant performances, authentic cuisine and the warm spirit of community that makes this event so special.
We were especially proud to have our Senior School Leaders in attendance, representing our school with dignity and enthusiasm. Their presence reflected our commitment to celebrating the diverse cultural backgrounds within our community and supporting events that strengthen cultural understanding and unity. Through their participation, they demonstrated leadership in action, engaging with community members, showing respect for tradition, and proudly standing alongside our Serbian families in celebration of their heritage.
On Friday 13 February, our school community came together for the much-anticipated Leaders Induction Assembly. During this significant occasion, we proudly acknowledged and presented our Student Leaders, including the newly appointed Student Representative Council (SRC) members for 2026. The assembly served as an important reminder of the value of leadership, accountability, and the vital role of student voice in guiding and enriching the future of our school.
The SRC holds an essential responsibility within the school, acting as a voice for the student body, raising matters of importance, and coordinating initiatives that contribute positively to school life. Whether organising events or advocating for the needs and ideas of their peers, these students are committed to building a supportive, inclusive, and vibrant school community.
In 2026, the SRC will work in partnership with the Middle School Vice Captains, the Social Justice Leaders, and the School Vice Captains to ensure that student projects and initiatives are successfully implemented. Through collaboration and teamwork, they will strive to enhance school spirit, increase student participation, and play an active role in key school events and activities.
We warmly congratulate all newly inducted SRC members and eagerly anticipate the meaningful contributions they will make to our school throughout the year.
