Ella Wells – Head Girl
I am honoured to have been named Head Girl at St Margaret’s
College for 2017. I have been part of this school community
since Year 7. It is very special to be part of such a positive and
inclusive community such as St Margaret’s, and even more
special to have the privilege to help lead it. I strongly believe
that the family feel of St Margaret’s, provides every girl with
the opportunity to feel like they are part of something that
is bigger than themselves.
When going through the planning process at the end of last
year, with the whole year group, we were required to chose
a theme that would represent our visions for the year, as well
as encompass the school’s values. The theme we came up
with was ‘Capture the Moment’. This theme encourages girls
to capture the numerous opportunities they are given here
at St Margaret’s and make that opportunity their moment
to shine. It also reminds us to stay grounded and be grateful
for the moment we are in at present. Another big aspect
of the theme, is the concept of making memories. While
classes and grades are important, taking the time to make
memorable moments is also important. We encourage girls
to get involved in school events and try new things, as this
will make their school years filled with amazing moments
made with amazing people.
This year we are aiming to build on the family feel St Margaret’s
has. We want to create stronger connections between year
groups so every girl can ‘capture their moment’ and find
success and achievement in her opportunities
in 2017. We all look forward to another
amazing year.
