SRC Report

This term, the SRC has been busy planning, executing and attending various events.

Fort Street Prefect Afternoon Tea

Tuesday Week 7, Term 2

Prefect Afternoon Teas (PATs) are an opportunity for student school leaders to share ideas, network and socialise. The Year 11 SRC executive team has continued receiving invitations from other schools to their PATs. So far, we’ve attended PATs hosted by North Sydney Girls’ High School, Girraween High School, Penrith High School and Burwood Girls High School.

The Fort Street SRC hosted our PAT on Tuesday 7 June in the school hall. We were extremely excited to welcome such a large group of school leaders and would like to thank Ms McMurray and Mr Morrison for their assistance in organising the event. Through leadership and team-building exercises, we were able to foster inter-school spirit and connect with a unique set of people! The event was great fun, and though tiring, a wonderful segway into Year 11 camp.

Y11 Camp

Wednesday to Friday Week 7, Term 2

In addition to the camp-long grade-wide assassin game, on the second day of camp, the SRC organised evening entertainment. Year 11 participated in a series of games, including musical chairs; cat and mouse; and propose, marry, divorce. Thank you Year 11 for your engagement and spirit! It was much appreciated and we hope that you found the evening activities enjoyable. For anyone interested in learning more about the camp endeavours, I’d like to direct you to the Year 11 Camp article in this Mercurius Issue.

School Spirit Week

Week 10, Term 2

In Week 10 this term, the SRC will be hosting a School Spirit Week, which includes 4 days of events and activities in collaboration with the House Captains. Any profits made by the SRC from this event will fund the Future Leaders Week event in Term 3, an interschool leadership event held by the SRC.

Throughout the week, the House Captains will be hosting Mario Kart, Netball and Chess competitions, open to all students for participation and spectation.

The SRC aspect of the School Spirit Week events are as follows:
