My name is Sam Martyn and I am the Junior School Leader for 2023/24. I was a member of the foundational Year 6 class in 2018, so I have a strong connection to the Junior part of the College. I am very glad to be able to be the Senior Leader for the Junior School. My aim for next year is to build a stronger relationship with the Staff and Students of the Junior School, being present at as many events as possible and also bring along with me fellow leaders or students to get them amongst the Juniors. I am looking forward to working with the Junior School Student Leadership Team to make the school even better than it already is.
On Sunday the 19th of November myself and two other leaders, Hollins and Joseph went down to Mittagong for a 3-day Marist Youth Ministry Student Leaders’ Gathering which hosted student leaders from 17 Marist schools in NSW and the ACT. I learnt a lot about leadership and gained insight from people whom I had never met about how they saw leadership and their perspective on how to be a good leader. The SLG was a great event that formed many friendships between students in Marist schools and those friendships can be continued at other Marist interschool events. I am really looking forward to the next year ahead of us and the amazing things that are bound to happen.
