Head Girl
A home is a place of warmth, comfort, and affection, a place where you are loved and embraced for who you truly are. For the past four years, St Peters College has been my home away from home. St Peters College is so much more than just a school, and it is a community that welcomes each student with open arms. This is a family that is so diverse yet fits together so perfectly. A family like no other.
When I joined the College in Grade 8, I knew instantly that this was my second home. St Peters College has everything on offer, from exceptional sport and cultural facilities to excellent academics; however, what sets it apart from every other school is the unspoken bond that we have with each other. We are all connected by the respect and care we share for one another, and the love and pride we have for our school. When we win on the sports field, receive a standing ovation up on stage or achieve in the classroom, it is humility that underpins St Peters College as a school.
Over the years, I have learned that what makes St Peters unique is the passion and commitment that the teachers and coaches have for what they do, whether it’s an early morning sports practice underneath the floodlights or an extra online lesson over the weekend - their dedication is unwavering.
I am beyond honoured to be appointed as Head Girl for 2021, a dream that has finally come true and an incredible opportunity to represent each amazing student at the school. I can’t wait to embark on this journey with my St Peters family. I know very well that times of adversity lie ahead but just as all families come together in trying times, so will the St Peters family unite and stand strong to weather this storm. Home is where the heart is, and St Peters College will always hold an extraordinary place in my heart.
With red, blue, and gold coursing through our veins, let’s walk ‘Bravely into the Future’ as strong as ever.
