As a house councillor from year 9 to now in year 11, I have actively sought many opportunities to lead within Murdoch house. I have marshalled years 7 and 8 in swimming carnivals, as well as coached year 7 interhouse sport. I have also helped organise and lead different activities for house day, and other house events like fundraisers. However, I believe as a current peer support leader, getting to know the Murdoch year 8s, planning educational activities for them, as well as most importantly leading the activities and discussions, has been one of the biggest leadership roles I have taken on as a part of Murdoch house.
Since the beginning of highschool I have involved myself in a variety of house activities including interhouse sport, interhouse quiz, house choir, and helped lead groups in other house activities such as the treasure hunts and Easter egg hunts, where I was able to connect with students in younger year groups. I have put my name forward to be a part of the house council every year since year 9, and have been successful. I am also a current peer support leader. I have been involved with many fundraisers such as the ice cream fundraiser earlier this year, the bake sale, pizza fundraiser and crepe stall at the pasar malam that the Murdoch council have organised in the past.
