Achievement Assembly is always a memorable moment at De Salis.
After a busy week of campaigning, we saw Years 9, 10, 11 and Post 16 cast their votes for who they want to see elected as Student Voice Chair, Vice Chair and Secretary. As votes were counted, it was clear to see who came out on top and we are pleased to announce Najma Abdi as Student Voice Chair, Umar Ishtiaq as Vice Chair and Leo Khawam as Secretary. We also want to congratulate Nikita Solovjov, our new Social Media Representative. We applaud all applicants for their strength and courage to campaign to their fellow classmates and look forward to working with them on all future college endeavours.
Student Voice is an integral part of our college, which regularly invites comments from students, organises meetings and aims to implement any new ideas that have been put forward by their peers. This week, students took part in an assembly, where they learnt about the roles and responsibilities of the key lead positions of Student Voice and what would be expected of them. Interested candidates were asked to write a letter of application, stating which role they were interested in and why they considered themselves to be suitable for the role. The next step involved shortlisted candidates to submit a short video presentation, which was then shown during form registration prior to the votes taking place. Votes quickly came rolling in to the ballot box and we are excited to see who will be nominated Student Voice Chair, Vice Chair and Secretary!
On Wednesday 15th December, De Salis held its annual Year 11 Boss Day. The day started with guest speakers, who talked students through their own business skills and strategies, and how they too can become successful business owners. Students were later involved in a business-related challenge and each were given a personalised ‘Boss Day’ notebook and pen as memorabilia of the day. A massive thank you to our guest speakers, and we look forward to hosting another in 2022!
