Student Council elected for 2016

The student leaders for 2016 at St Patrick’s College have been announced.

John Brodie will captain the College in 2016 and will have Hasker Dawborn and David O’Doherty as his Vice Captains.

The trio were announced as the student leaders during the full school Transfer of Leadership Assembly which was held in Br W. T. O’Malley Sports Centre on Tuesday, October 13, 2015.

The assembly also presented the College community the opportunity to acknowledge the great work of outgoing student leaders Kelsey Gannon, James McKinnon and Jacob Hopper as well as the full departing Student Council.

Headmaster John Crowley said he was incredibly impressed with the high calibre of candidates who were interviewed during the selection process.

Mr Crowley said those elected to student leadership positions had all displayed a great understanding of the role of leadership in a Catholic community and had full appreciation of their roles as custodians of the St Patrick’s College culture.

Mr Crowley was also effusive in his praise for the 2015 student leaders particularly in writing an open letter to the Ballarat community during the time of the Ballarat hearings of the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.

Mr Crowley said the 2015 Student Council had also been incredibly impressive in organising a full-school tribute to stand by Adam Goodes, and by mobilising the student body to a record fundraising effort at this year’s Edmund Rice Day Walkathon.

Along with John, Hasker and David the full members of the 2016 Student Council and Student Congress were also announced at the assembly.
