ROSIE MILNE HEAD GIRL

With 2020 being the start of a new decade and the 110th birthday of St Margaret’s College, I am truly honoured to have been appointed as Head Girl. Spreading plenty of kindness and positivity is my main goal and key to helping the girls reach their full potential.

Alongside Deputy Head Girl Hattie Compton-Moen, we aim to continue to make the school an environment where everyone feels welcome and girls are comfortable being themselves. With this year’s school theme of ‘She’s My Champion’, we have created a three-step guide to becoming an SMC ‘Champion’. It highlights the importance of being yourself while upholding the seven values of championship – respect, kindness, bravery, curiosity, inclusivity, spirit, and pride. Often we find ourselves honouring the destination of a ‘Champion’, however it is the journey to becoming a ‘Champion’ that is equally as important.

Our motto attached to the theme is ‘Her success is my success and our success’. It is crucial that we celebrate each other’s successes and can be genuinely proud of one other. Through this we will also strengthen the big sister-little sister relationship that we pride ourselves on at SMC.

We have an incredible team of prefects this year and as a whole Year 13 group we will lead the school by being role models and upholding the championship values. I know 2020 is going to be a fantastic year!

St Margaret’s College is a family that values each girl for the gifts and talents she brings.
