  • Wagga School Leaders Program
    Wagga School Leaders Program 2019 Supported by forward message Michael Quirk Committee 4 Wagga Chairperson The Committee 4 Wagga has once again run a very successful Wagga School Leaders Program. We are pleased with the uptake of this program as it gives the city’s future leaders an opportunity to develop their leadership skills. We had a broad cross section of young people nominated from all high schools in Wagga Wagga. The School Leaders Program helps develop their individual leadership skills through a range of activities and experiences which were designed to promote social, ethical, emotional, physical and cognitive competencies. All of the participants had very busy schedules and a lot of these activities took them way outside their comfort zones. There was a willingness to tackle obstacles and take on challenging situations. Participation in the Wagga School Leaders Program should assist participants to analyse their strengths and- ar eas for development; enable them to set personal and vocational goals; it enables them to start building their networks and develop their self-confidence to assist in achieving those goals. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of those School Leaders who have successfully completed this program and I wish you all very successful careers armed with the additional skills that you have acquired through the Program. Thank you to Lisa Simpson and Chris Fitzpatrick for co-ordinating, leading, supporting and mentoring the group through the program. Thanks also to Michelle and Alan from Committee 4 Wagga for your involvement in the program. I would also take this opportunity to thank the sponsors of the program, in particular Charles Sturt University, whose considerable involvement in the program is invaluable.
