Growing student leadership is a key focus for our senior students. Many of our students aspire to be a student leader in their final year at Manurewa West Primary.
Year 6 students are provided with opportunities to :
- Lead in areas of personal strength.
- Lead school activities such as running assemblies, hosting visitors, or inducting and looking after new students.
- Lead or have input into activities e.g. kapa haka, clubs, enviro-schools, sport, or health.
- Experience mentoring programmes for student leaders, peer, buddy, tuakana–teina approaches, whānau, or house groupings.
Year 6 applicants go through a rigorous process from the initial application through to the interview with our Deputy Principal, Mrs Bowden followed by shortlisting and selection.
