I like gaming and softball.

My interests are mostly music related. I really enjoy singing and playing the drums, guitar and viola. Other than music I enjoy reading, playing volleyball and socialising.

My interests are volleyball, netball, ultimate disk and I do like basketball but not as much as other stuff. I also like woodwork but sadly I didn’t get into the class, cooking, making jewellery, and music as I play saxophone, drums and piano.

My interests are more sport like volleyball, music and being social around people, including teachers.

I love going to school to meet new people and see my friends. I wanted to be a leader to help students and teachers.

I love school because it has given me the opportunity to do things I never thought I’d want to do before, such as robotics, leadership, drama, music and so much more.

I’ve been a leader since Year 7 and what made me initially want to sign up for leadership was going from Freshwater State School to Bentley Park. Due to my primary school being in the other side of Cairns I didn’t know anyone starting out and I saw this as an opportunity to become almost a better person than I was in Year 6, a more confident person and someone who could actually make a change and leadership was the way to achieve this.

The things I love about school are getting to see my friends, my elective classes (music and media arts), band, and getting to learn new things every day. I’ve always wanted to be a leader since I was young. I always looked up to the school leaders when I was in primary school, but I never thought I would get the opportunity since I moved school frequently. I think I must have gone to at least 8 different schools from prep and grade 1. But luckily, I haven’t moved since I came to Bently Park, and I am so grateful to have the chance to become a leader from grades 7-9.

I love school for teaching us not just academia, sport, arts, or other subjects but life skills like critical thinking, communication, leadership, problem solving and even mental health solutions.

What made me become a leader is to make these students needs and wants be possible, for a greater future, and they can rely on me for that.

My goals for 2025 are to get my grades up, and in the future I want to become an early learning teacher.

My goal for 2025 is to be a more organised person. Currently I’m not sure what I want to do in the future.

My goals this year are to achieve better grades and to improve my writing and typing skills particularly my speed. When I graduate, I want to get a degree in education and work as a music teacher as I love music and can play various instruments such as piano, recorder, ukelele, saxophone, glockenspiel, guitar and drums.

My goals for 2025 are to at least get above Bs on all of subjects, become fit and make a difference within the environment around BPC. In the future I want to create my own business to provide for my family, my loved ones and to live the life of a wealthy man.

My advice to anyone aspiring to be a leader is simple: just go for it. There's no reason why you shouldn't. High school is the perfect time to challenge yourself and take risks. It's the ideal moment to step out of your comfort zone and try something new, even if it feels intimidating. And if you make a mistake along the way, that's okay, this is the time to learn from it and grow. Leadership isn't reserved for a select few; anyone can be a leader. All it takes is an open mind and the courage to step up and make a difference.

If you want to become a leader or think that you would make a good one, then you should go for it. Because the worst they can say is no and it’s better to know if you would’ve got it then not knowing at all. I’m a good example of that as I never expected to get to where I am now, which is why you should give something scary that you think you could do but you’re too scared to do because you never know what will happen. You could get it, but you also might not but it’s always better to know than not to, and you could always give it a try next time. As I went for it in grade 6 but didn’t get it so I tried it again next year and kept getting it after that. So, it’s always better to give it a try than not to.

In whatever free time I have I love to go the beach or out for a drive. I also love listening to and making music. 

At the moment it's completing school to move onto university while still trying to enjoy school.

Hanging out with my friends and family, music composition and performance and going on a walk or outdoor related activities.

 My interests include playing basketball, being outside, listening to music, and learning facts about animals.

I love school because the people I get to share every day and every memory with. I enjoy all the events we have and just being social. I wanted to become a leader to prove that by surrounding yourself with good people and having a positive mindset, you can achieve almost anything. You might think these things are out of your reach but there is no harm in giving it a go. 

There are many reasons I enjoy school, namely my friends, my teachers and my subjects. I have found every connection, every fun moment with friends and every day, regardless of how long or tiring, to be worthwhile.

I am, however, aware that this isn’t the case for every student which was one of the main factors of why I wanted to be a leader, to help make school enjoyable for more people.

 I love school because it is a place where people can try new things and find their identity. The reason I wanted to be a leader is to help the younger students and make BPC a place people want to come to.

In 2025 I am hoping to achieve amazing results in academics, citizenship and the arts. I also want to make as many memories as possible with my friends and make the most of my senior year.

After school I hope to go to university to study business or teaching. 

Keep the friends I've got and go to university. 

My personal goals for 2025 are to achieve a good ATAR and to make the most of my final year, extending myself to make as many lasting memories as I can. I hope that when I finish school, I will have the necessary marks to enter tertiary studies for law.

My advice is to anyone and everyone even slightly considering a leadership role is just go for it. Even if you don't get in, there is no harm in trying, who knows you might really enjoy it. It all comes together in the end! Everything happens for a reason! 

Even if you have never been a leader, you fail 100% of the things you don't try.

My biggest advice for younger people who aspire to achieve leadership positions is to not doubt yourself. Everyone has the capacity to lead. You may already be a leader to those around you, so don’t ever think you can’t do it.

My advice to younger students would be to stay true to yourself and your beliefs. It is important to be open and listen to other perspectives and ideas, but don’t lose sight in what you believe in.
