Leadership @ MHJC

Leadership Expectations

Your applications should state why you want this position, the skills and attributes you believe you have to assist you to carry out the position, your involvement in the 4 cornerstones and anything else you wish to say in support of your application.

Most roles will require you to give up time at interval lunch time or after school and you should consider this before making application. Students who do not attend meetings or complete their tasks regularly will be removed from their leadership position.
