Dear colleagues,

Thank you for your meaningful discussions over last week's afternoon PD with regards to student leadership roles in SSS.

I have collated your discussions in which attained a common consensus amongst the various departments, committees, CCA groups, work groups and school needs etc into a google slide as attached and have done my best to "standardise" them as well while yet maintaining the original essence of what was discussed.

Group leaders from the discussion groups, please raise any potential issues/inaccuracy in the information shown in the slides pertaining to you respective peer leaders to me.

Please share them with your form class on T1W3, Mon, 16 Jan, during FTGP (UPDATED).

Should there be insufficient time to share any slides, please inform your form class students to go to SLS to:

1. read up on the different leadership roles and to apply for them.

2. nominate their peers whom they think are suitable for the various roles.

The class committee role application exercise for students will be done via Student Learning Space (SLS) from Monday, 16 Jan (UPDATED DATE), onwards and end on 23 Jan.

We will be starting the Class Committee Training in T1W5, Mon, 30 Jan and T1W6, Mon, 6 Feb.

If you are unable to go through all 17 class committee roles, you may go through the following roles instead as they are slightly more unique:

1. Class Leaders

2. Line Leaders

3. Peer Support Leaders

4. VIA Ambassadors

5. Math Peer Leaders

6. PE Peer Leaders

7. Green Peer Leaders

8. ICT Peer Leaders

9. Prayer Peer Leaders
