Greetings to our Bellmere Community,

Student Leaders for 2026 – Applications open soon!

Early next term, our Year 5 students will have the opportunity to nominate for a student leader position for 2026. Our student leader positions are:

• 2 School Captains
• 8 House Captains
• 2 Performing Arts Captains
• 1 Multicultural Captain
• 1 STEM Captain

Interested students will need to submit an application form (next term). We will then go through a shortlisting process to identify students who meet criteria to be nominated for a School Captain position. School Captains are selected prior to the end of the year (inducted at the Year 6 Awards Evening at the end of term). All other captain positions are filled early in the new year.

We will be communicating more about this to Year 5 students and families in the coming weeks.

Upcoming Noteworthy Dates This Fortnight

• Last day of Term 3 – Friday 19^th September
• First day of Term 4 – Tuesday 7^th October
• Assembly (whole school) – Wednesday 8^th October

Have a great two-week break away from school. Stay safe and healthy. I am looking forward to seeing everyone back in the new term.

Terry Caudwell
