Prefects Profiles

Nichols_Jack.jpgWaters_Oryn.jpg

We are Jack and Oryn, and we are members of the Health and Wellbeing Prefect Portfolio alongside Hollie, Jenna, Sophie B, Sophie R, Imogen, Skyla and Aurora.

My name is Jack and I am Deputy Head Prefect of the Health and Wellbeing Portfolio. My role is to help organise carnivals alongside Mr Sanders, run sporting activities at lunch times while trying to improve the health and wellbeing of the students at school. I work alongside Daisy, Elaria Olivia, and Harvey as an executive group. In my free time I enjoy playing soccer and touch football, going to the gym, hiking, swimming and hanging out with my friends. Inside of school I enjoy PE, Wednesday sport, English and HASS. My favourite food is a Parmi and salad.

I began my leadership journey in primary school where I would take on opportunities to try and and improve my leadership skills for future roles. I have been captain of my soccer team for the past two years and it has given me immense confidence, resilience and the leadership skills I believe make me an effective and fun leader.

Coming from a small school on the north-west coast of Tasmania to a big school in an unfamiliar place where I knew almost no-one proved difficult. I have persisted to further benefit myself by keeping a positive mindset and getting involved with as many activities as I could which ultimately led me to this role. As a Prefect I will endeavour to try my best in everything, try to get more people involved and encourage people to take a step forward and take as many opportunities as they can! 

My name is Oryn and I am a Health and Wellbeing Prefect. I am an outgoing and sporty person. As many of my family members would confirm I sleep, breathe, watch, play and talk about any sports I can all the time. In my free time I enjoy playing sports, hanging out with my mates, shopping, and most importantly spending time with family. While I’m at school I enjoy English, Music, Wednesday Sport and, of course, PE.

Before moving to Australia I lived in Suzhou, China where I was born and raised. Being a foreigner, I felt a little left out at times, however, when I was old enough to move, I went to my primary school which happened to be an international school full of individuals from all around the world. I felt like I belonged, as I started to get to know my peers a little more. I found that there were quite a few fellow Aussies which was very pleasing, having been at an international school from a young age, I have been able to build lots of friendships with students from all around the world. I keep in touch with my friends from Japan, Korea, China, Australia, Sweden, Portugal and Italy. I feel so grateful that I can share my story with others and the opportunities I had growing up in China.

I look forward to putting my best foot forward while being a leader of the school and having a great year filled with fun memories.

We hope this year holds great memories and opportunities for all students and we can't wait to see the progress of the school in 2024.
