A chance for our house leaders to develop their leadership skills.
The GRIP team are specialists in the area of student leadership and presenting sessions that are highly interactive and directly applicable to the situations that students face at school every day. The ‘GRIP Student Leadership Conference’ is a one-day event held in numerous cities across several countries and is enjoyed by tens of thousands of students each year. The central focus of the conference is equipping student leaders with practical ideas and skills which will allow them to make a significant contribution to their schools.
Some feedback from our team:
Madison - "The GRIP student leader conference was a great way to know how to be and become a great leader in school and in life. It was a practical, interactive, fun and helpful way to learn how to be an awesome leader. It's a good way to interact with others, how to get thoughts into actions, and ask questions about what to do in a leadership role."
Angus - "I really enjoyed the Grip Course. What I liked about it were the games were really fun and the activities too. I also enjoyed meeting other leaders from other schools."
Andrew - "Today was amazing because of how much it taught us how to be an 'others first' leader. This involves the four "H's" Hearing others opinions, Helping with the little things, Happiness, and Humility. These four "H's" will help us improve the school and me through my journey of leadership."
Leah - "I thought that it was a great idea to show how to be a leader in a fun way. It was really cool to talk to other people from other schools and it was a really fun day."
Emmy - "I really enjoyed it and learned some really effective leadership skills. The day was interesting and well worth it."
Ethan - "I enjoyed the conference because it was cool to learn new skills and strategies to become a successful leader for our school. It was nice to meet other leaders from different schools."
