CANOWINDRA HIGH NEW STUDENT LEADERS
Congratulations to Penelope Whatman
and Gerard Eppelstun who were elected
School Captains for 2011, and Teiya
Thornberry and Hayden Frecklington for
their election as Vice Captains.
The new student leaders were announced
at the merit assembly Thursday
23 September, and performed their first
formal task chairing the final Year 12
farewell assembly on the last day of term.
Principal David Lloyd thanked and
recognised the efforts of outgoing
Captains and Vice Captains, Gabrielle
Upton, Brydon Hughes, Melissa Nash and
James Vitnell, “They did an exceptional
job leading the student body and raising
the profile and effectively undertaking all
roles with aplomb!
“I would like to thank all parents and
community members who joined with
Year 12 students to wish them well at the
final assembly and formal dinner in the
last week of last term. I was very
impressed with the professional way the
students conducted themselves and the
positive atmosphere at both farewell
functions. Congratulations in particular to
Mark Edwards who led the organisation
of both events and to the many
community members and staff who
contributed in many ways large and small
to make these events successful.
Good luck Year 12 Canowindra High
