Galston High School Student Representative Council (SRC) Induction
The Principal was delighted to induct our new student representatives in front of the whole school, parents and student leaders from our local primary schools. The SRC is the voice of our students. The representatives are elected for their leadership qualities to enhance the school community, focussing on the needs of the student body. They are also our social conscience as they raise money for different charities and support a variety of causes that they feel are important. This year they are being ably lead by their president, Damian Shahfazli with the support of Mia Rowe as Vice President.
