2000 Kookaburra Council Leaders
Chairperson

Secretary

Treasurer

Harriet Whiley Samantha Williams Stefan Potts

Our Student Representative Council is known as Kookaburra Council. A student, elected from each class, attends Kookaburra Council meetings each fortnight under the guidance of staff members, Mrs. Jacqui Brettig and Mr. Brian Marshall. Students discuss issues raised at class meetings and make recommendations for consideration by staff and School Council.


Harriet, Stefan and Samantha

In addition to being a forum for student ideas, Kookaburra Council also organizes fun activities for students, including regular student discos and the very popular Casual Days. This year several charities will be supported by the activities of Kookaburra Council.

Hundreds of dollars have been donated to the following organizations.
                 The Juvenile Diabetes Foundation
                 The Anti-Cancer Foundation
                 The Salvation Army.
