Head Students
At Waiuku Primary School we have a proud tradition of offering leadership opportunities to our Year Eight students through our Head Student programme.
At the end of every year, our Year Seven students are encouraged to apply for the position of Head Student. Their application includes a list of the contributions to school life as well as Student Responsibilities that have held such as Road Patrol, Peer Mediator, Office Duty and Librarian. Applicants then present a two-minute speech about themselves and what they would do in the Head Student Role to our Hub Three and Four students. The successful applicants are announced at the end of year Prize Giving.
Head Students have an important role within the school. They organise and lead the fortnightly Monday morning assembly. They are also the representatives of our school at community events such as the Waiuku ANZAC parade.
We are very pleased to have as Head Students Karizma Green and Phoenix King
