Meet the Student Council

WHAT IS THE STUDENT COUNCIL?

The Island School Student Council is the voice of the students. It guarantees that all students have a platform for communicating their viewpoints and thoughts with respect to student life.

The Junior Student Council located in the Tai Wai campus also consists of the same 7 key areas;

WHAT DO WE DO?

The council meets regularly during lunchtimes or afterschool and agrees on their own agenda for items to work on throughout the year, in hopes of providing positive solutions and giving thoughtful feedback on important issues within the school. As well as implementing new ideas to help improve life at Island School and achieve a positive and open-minded learning environment.

WHY JOIN THE STUDENT COUNCIL?

We strongly encourage you to take on a leadership role within Island School, whether it be the student council or other job roles. Being part of the student council most importantly gives you the opportunity to develop your leadership skills by organizing and carrying out school activities and service projects but also contributing to our school spirit and community welfare. Help embody the Island School spirit and join the student council!
