Government and Politics
With the national election dominating the news, Year 12 Government and Politics students held their own election in School. The Year 12 students (Jamie Hutchinson, Melanie Meyer, Sam Bradley & Luc Jenkins) put themselves forwards as candidates, eagerly trying to impress the 'electorate', comprising Year 10 students.
The four major parties were involved, and campaigning took place from May 15 to 18.
The election was held on May 18, using a computer system that the students had developed specifically for the task.
The eagerly awaited results will be announced next week: watch this space !
