Student Voice

Student Voice is a collaboration of all three sub-schools that encourages and allows students to have a say about what goes on at the College and be active participants in the school community.

The role of Student Voice at Ocean View College is to promote the interests of the school through the active participation of the students’ involvement in the decision making of the day to day functions of the school community working with peers, staff, management and governing council.

At Ocean View College the focus of Student Voice is to:

  • Promote and incorporate the school values of Respect, Responsibility, Resilience in every aspect of college life, through leadership, role modelling and mentorship;
  • Promote and incorporate the school rules of I am safe, I am a learner and I am respectful and get along with others;
  • Be active participants in the decision-making process of all aspects of the learning environment inclusive of the Australian Curriculum through classroom practices, integrated learning, extra-curricular activities, subject selections and subjects offered at Ocean View College.

The School Voice members represent the College and the student body. There are representatives from each mentor group from Years 3 to 11. At Year 12, two school captains and two vice captains are appointed who are also positive role models to the student voice group. Representatives are recognised across the College and, as such, have greater accountability for all their actions. Student Voice members are entrusted with various roles and responsibilities throughout the year, including but not limited to the following:

  • Attend and lead Student Voice meetings;
  • Meet with the Principal to provide feedback from Student Voice meetings;
  •  Representation on Governing Council;
  • Run or assist with assemblies, special days and school events;
  • Represent the school at various community events;
  • Uphold the school values and expectations;
  • Take prospective parents and students on school tours
