Nyankat Deng

Q1. What does servant leadership mean to you?

Servant leadership to me means to live up to our college motto, live fully, act justly and to always be a role model not only to students within our college but everyone around me.

Q2. Why did you want to be a part of the 2022 student leadership team?

I chose to be a part of the 2022 student leadership team because I wanted to try new things and to boost my self-confidence and I must say that it has helped me a lot!

Q3. What is your role in the leadership team and what are your responsibilities?

My role in the student leadership team this year is Jackson Deputy House Captain. My responsibilities are to encourage my house as much as I can and to also be a role model to them.

Q4. What is a goal you would like to achieve this year in the leadership team?

My goal this year in the student leadership team is to give back to the Catholic Regional College community as it has helped me in starting my high school journey since year 7!

Q5. What is the legacy you wish to leave behind?

A legacy I would like to leave behind is that Catholic Regional College is a place where student voice is valued and it’s a place where you are supported by both students and staff.

Q6. What are some exciting projects or proposals the leadership team are currently working on, that you are passionate about?

Me and a couple of my leadership peers have proposed to leadership a peer support program which I am very excited about and can’t wait for it to start very soon.

Sarah Rigg

Q1. What does servant leadership mean to you?

To me Servant leadership means someone who is willing to put their hand up and take responsibility for the college and be a good representative.  

Q2. Why did you want to be a part of the 2022 student leadership team?

I wanted to be a part of the 2022 student leadership team because when I was in year 7 I really looked up towards the leaders and I knew that in my senior year I want to be that kind of inspiration for the younger students.  

Q3. What is your role in the leadership team and what are your responsibilities?

my role in the leadership team is Jackson House Captain. My responsibilities include representing Jackson House and all the sport carnivals we have at CRCCS and to help make decisions for the college.  

Q4. What is a goal you would like to achieve this year in the leadership team?

An achievement for me is for people to look up to me and feel the same inspiration I felt when I just started high school.  

Q5. What is the legacy you wish to leave behind?

I wish to leave behind a positive message that anything is possible. If you would have told me in year 7 that I would be house captain, I would not believe it. I want people to believe in themselves and do what truly makes them happy.  

Q6. What are some exciting projects or proposals the leadership team are currently working on, that you are passionate about?

We are currently working on many more fundraisers for many different foundations.
