Well done to all students who put themselves forward as Student Executive Candidates for 2012. Congratulations to the five students who have now been elected as leaders and role models for our school this year. They will be involved in many activities including running weekly assemblies, organising school-wide events, holding meetings with the student council and representing the school at occasions such as ANZAC Day and visiting the Year 6 students towards the end of the year. We are sure that our 2012 Student Executives will contribute positively towards successfully representing all MIS students this year.
