Every student in the school has an opportunity to lead and to serve the school community in many ways.
All students, regardless of official titles, are encouraged to display leadership qualities, acting as positive role models for their peers and affirming appropriate standards of behaviour within the school.
Official leadership positions are recognised in Year 6 Leaders, Year 10 Ambassadors, Year 11 Captains and Year 12 Prefects and Head Boy and Head Girl.
Students can further develop their leadership skills in a variety of ways – as a member of the Student Representative Council, participating in Duke of Edinburgh Awards, volunteering to be a Peer Support Leader or by participating in the many sporting cultural and service areas.
The Head Girl, Head Boy and Prefect roles are positions of the highest honour. These leadership positions are a whole school Toowoomba Anglican School position and not that of just the Secondary years.
Students applying for these positions will be working towards their Leadership Honours and will continue to be a Peer Support Leader through the senior years.
Toowoomba Anglican School has worked hard over the years to create partnerships with Blue Care, St. Vincent's Aged Care, Tony’s Kitchen, RSPCA, and St. Luke’s Anglican Parish Community Pantry, providing opportunities for our students to serve our local community both by giving of their time and through donations.
Service is an integral part of our educational philosophy, as it fosters a sense of responsibility, empathy, and compassion in our students. By engaging in these community service activities, students not only contribute to the welfare of others but also gain valuable life skills such as teamwork, leadership, and effective communication. Moreover, these experiences help students develop a broader perspective on social issues, instilling in them a lifelong commitment to making a positive impact in their communities. Through service, our students learn the importance of giving back, reinforcing the values of kindness, generosity, and civic duty that are essential for personal growth and societal well-being.
