Student Leadership | Cardijn College
CARDIJN COLLEGE
Student Leadership
Developing our students’ leadership capabilities is a key part of our community and we provide a number of leadership development opportunities.
In the Charism of Joseph Cardijn who is quoted as saying, ‘the young worker is worth more than all the gold in the world’, so it is that Cardijn College espouses the fundamental truth of the dignity of the human person and of their work.
The student leadership roles within the College play an integral part in honouring the voice and presence of its student body, while celebrating the gifts and contributions young people make through their service to members of the school community.
Each student leadership role has a specific, distinct and unique focus and a collective responsibility of service to the College and to live out our College motto of ‘See, Judge, Act’.
