Student Leadership at Lourdes Hill College is a pivotal aspect of College life. Our wellbeing, service, cultural, sporting and academic programs offer our students many opportunities to develop and demonstrate their leadership skills in the Junior, Middle and Senior School.
Through the Stella Wellbeing Curriculum Program, students in all year levels develop the key leadership skills of building relationships, listening, negotiating, problem-solving, decision making and resilience.
Leadership skill-building opportunities are offered through our signature programs including Stella Days, Creative Spectacular, Mirragin Program, Big Sister/Little Sister Program and Magic in the Middle School. Student conferences, the Lord Mayor student leadership programs and student leadership networking events are examples of external events that provide leadership development.
