LEARNER LEADERSHIP HIGH SCHOOL

LEARNER LEADERSHIP 2014
The LLC’s main aim for this year was to build school spirit. They did
this by continuing with War Cry Wednesdays, SuperFan and SuperCrit
for sporting and cultural events. The LLC of 2014 had an eventful and
rewarding year, starting off with the New Learners’ Party. The theme for
this was the Amazing Race; this allowed the learners to discover where
some of the important places in the school are. This was followed by
some eats, drinks and music in the hall. In February, the LLC hosted
the annual Junior High social. This years theme was a Mad Hatter’s Tea
Party. This event was extremely successful and fun was had by all.
As part of their outreach, the LLC worked with the Peer Responders to
raise awareness and show support for all types of people by handing
out purple and orange ribbons for LGBT’s. The LLC also collected tins
of food to send to the striking miners and their families.
To keep school spirit going and to keep learners up to date before, after
and during any events held at the school, the LLC created an Instagram
account.
With regards to their actions within the school, the LLC ran parliament
sessions during the year, where learners could raise their concerns
about the school in general. This was followed up by the members
of the LLC and taken to management to discuss. The results of the
discussions were reported back to the school at feedback sessions at
assemblies. One of the biggest concerns raised was about the use of
iPads by the Grade 7s. The LLC worked with the Grade 7s to come up
with strategies to allow them to leave their iPads at breaks and start
socialising instead, this was very successful.
