On the 18th of August Year 11 undertook in Shores special leadership day where we learned many of the important skills and qualities of good leadership and prepared ourselves for our future roles of leadership within the school.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Leadership day kicked off with seminars on leadership conducted by various house masters.\u00a0 For Hodges, this was Mr.\u00a0 Fitch, who did an excellent job in creating inciting and thoughtful discussions on leadership.\u00a0 We started by looking at and discussing numerous examples of good leadership such as John Howard and Jacinda Ardern.\u00a0 We observed leaders what traits made them good leaders such as compassion and honesty.\u00a0 Conversely, we looked at examples of bad leaders where we examined bad traits of leadership such as selfishness or dishonesty.\u00a0 The comparison between good and bad leadership let us identify key attributes required for us to provide good leadership and further prepared us for our future leadership positions.<\/p>\n

When we the sessions started again, all of Year 11 connected with Mr.\u00a0 Petterson and Reverent Dudley via Zoom in order to further our discussions on leadership.\u00a0 They talked about the responsibilities of leadership within the school, as-well as citing examples of good leadership and the values which they bring forward to the community.\u00a0 By the end of their insightful discussion, we had learnt the implications of leadership, its responsibilities and the important qualities and motives which create good leaders.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After leadership day had ended, Hodges continued with our discussions on leadership with a recap on the day and what we had learned.\u00a0 We also discussed some of the changes we would like to see implemented into the boarding house to improve the Hodges culture and foster a good environment for the boys.\u00a0 Many initiatives were proposed such as in-house sports and academic competitions as-well as in-house events.\u00a0 The initiatives as-well as other ideas discussed aimed to create a positive atmosphere within the boarding house and make the most positive use of our leadership roles within the house and school.<\/p>\n

Overall the leadership day was beneficial for all of the Year 11 boys, teaching us what the best qualities and attributes of student leadership are as-well as what is expected of us as the leaders of the school.<\/p>\n
