Student Leadership

The Australian Islamic College Student Leadership Team is a group of highly competent student representatives elected by the students. These student leaders develop innovative, feedback-focused approaches that promotes the wellbeing of their peers in each cohort by facilitating open communication with the management of the college. They have been at the forefront of organizing an array of interactive social events throughout the academic year to ensure their peers enjoy their time and make lifelong memories. An example of this is the Eid Festival that was initiated in 2020, a regular event now, to combat the low morale of Muslims in all communities due to COVID-19 restrictions; the students enjoyed a full day of sports, Halal food trucks, henna art painting, photo booths, gaming rooms, and movies, all under the supervision of their instructors. Other events include a partnership with Human Appeal Australia wherein students participated in the Ramadan Food Drive and collected food for families affected by Covid-19. Our students also celebrate Harmony Day and Anti Bullying Week as well. World Teachers Day is another celebration held to express gratitude for our hardworking teachers. Along with this, our students participate in interschool competitions and games.

We provide students with a supportive learning environment that develops leadership skills through character-based learning opportunities. Our student leaders work cooperatively to achieve set goals, inspire their peers, and promote a culture of school pride and belonging.

The leadership opportunities include:

  • Student Representative Council (SRC)

  • House Captains and Vice Captains
  • Organising school events

  • Addressing school assemblies

  • Fundraising projects
  • Volunteering

Most of all, the Student Leadership Team endeavors to embody strong, exemplary leadership as well as empower and advocate for the voices of the extremely dynamic and promising future generation of young Australian Muslims.

The Student Representative Council (SRC) is a student-based group designed to foster school spirit and leadership among students. We elect members of SRC each year to maintain a fresh approach and a strong student voice within the school. Members are leaders who create and nurture constructive ideas within the school community.

Why have an SRC?

Student Representative Councils represent students’ interests and needs in various ways. We believe that students have the right to be consulted and have their voices heard about decisions that affect them. We believe that the students should be given opportunities to develop their leadership potential and get a chance to collaborate with each other and the wider community. This is why we wholeheartedly support this and will continue to do so.
