SRC stands for Student Representative Council.

Hi, I’m Alice, and I’m an SRC executive for 2023. My favourite thing about being an SRC executive is planning fun things like the disco! I really wanted to be an SRC executive so I could help our school. I’ve learnt a lot about being a leader and had heaps of fun along the way.

Hi, I’m Lotti, and I’m an SRC executive for 2023 it means a lot to me to be able to have this privilege of being able to help the school community in my final year here at Coro. Being an SRC executive is pretty cool and it gives me the opportunity to be able to change things and make the school a fun, happier learning environment.

Hi, I’m Connor, and I am also an SRC executive for 2023. I was one of the lucky four to get chosen to be an executive. As an executive, I get to go to other schools to discuss what we’ve been doing at our school. It has been a real privilege to get this position and be on the team.

Hi, I’m James, and I’m an SRC executive for 2023. My favourite thing about being an executive is helping and contributing to my school’s ideas and events. It has helped me realise and understand about being a leader and role model and helped me improve on my responsibility. Being an SRC Executive is very fun and will definitely prepare me for high school next year.

To be a student leader, you have to write an application. Some teachers then read through everybody’s application and choose four leaders for each category. Each team of leaders had a teacher who they would talk to about their ideas and would supervise their meetings, which were on Friday, Lesson 4. As a leader, you must strive to make the school a better place.

Our job is to make the school a better place. We’ve organised a school disco that has been quite a bit of work as we had to:

• Write a letter to parents and friends asking for help organising it
• Find a good date and time that suits everyone
• Organise music and snacks for the party
• Find decorations
• Decorate
• Clean up in between discos

As SRC executives we have attended partnership meetings with other school executives at Eden Hills Primary. We meet together and talk about what we have done at our own schools and also talk about how to be a good leader. We discuss techniques and ideas of what we can do to be a good leader. 

One of the things we as SRC executives did to help the school was start the 10c recycling for cans. We made a video about recycling and showed everyone what this recycling was and how to use them. Afterwards, we saw lots of people using the bins and it was a great sight for us to see that our video worked! It’s great when we do things to help the school.

As SRC executives we have been put in charge of fundraisers such as the end of term casual clothes day donation. Term 3's went to the new playground going in next to the oval next year, for this we raised $461.30! 

During our SRC meetings, we take notes of everything everyone says. Afterwards, we take a look back at the notes and see if we can do anything. If there are people to talk to or messages to pass on then we will do them. We make sure we do everything we can to help everyone's ideas.

Our school has had many fun events this year, but one of the standout favourites was the Halloween Disco!

We organised a date and time while getting help and feedback from the adults. We decided to bring back the Halloween disco since it was discontinued due to COVID-19. The canteen joined in to make Halloween snacks for people to buy and the healthy living group (led by Jenny Tucker) made green and orange smoothies. They were delicious!

Everybody who came had a blast and it will definitely continue for many years to come.

I’d also like to thank Ms Todd for helping us do everything we did. She has been very supportive of us.
