PROSERPINE State High School’s 2025 school leaders were inducted on Monday (February 10) in front of their peers, teachers and members of their school community.
Mia Vloedmans and Callum Henry were inducted into the position of School Captains, with Tavis McDonald and Abbie Green inducted as School Vice Captains.
School Principal Don McDermid said he looked forward to working alongside the school leaders to provide an inclusive and supportive environment for all students.
“We value our school community and strive to include others, recognise strengths, value diversity and support others in times of need,” Mr McDermid said.
On the back of being named the first secondary school in Australia to be a b kinder school, badges were also presented to the school’s six b kinder ambassadors at the ceremony.
Alice Pini and Hurley Diessel were the school’s recipients of the George Telford Memorial Bursary and Douglas Debney Memorial Bursary.
These are generously funded by Wilmar Sugar Australia Limited and were presented to students for being the top two academically achieving Year 12 students for 2024.
Alice was also named School Dux for 2024 after achieving an outstanding 99.40 ATAR result.
Alice expressed her gratitude for the generosity of Wilmar towards herself and Hurley and acknowledged the support from the broader school community.
