Dear MIS community,

I am delighted to share with you all details of todays Seniors assembly, where we proudly announced our newly elected Student Council members, Sports Captains, Clan Captains, and Head Boy and Girl.

This marks a significant moment in our academic year, highlighting the importance of student leadership and the power of student voice in shaping our school community.

At Merchiston International School, we firmly believe in nurturing leadership qualities from within our student body. These roles are not just titles but opportunities to exemplify our core values. Our newly appointed leaders will play a crucial role in representing student interests, fostering a spirit of collaboration, and driving positive change within our school.

Student leadership is about more than holding a position; its about setting an example, inspiring others, and working together to create an inclusive and dynamic environment.

As leaders, they are tasked with embodying the principles of empathy, responsibility, and initiative. Their active participation helps ensure that every students voice is heard, promoting a sense of belonging and community.

Our commitment to developing 21st-century skills is reflected in these leadership opportunities. Skills such as critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity are essential for success in today's world. Through these leadership roles, they will gain valuable experiences that will serve them well beyond their school years.

Congratulations to all our new leaders. I look forward to witnessing their contributions and the positive impact they will undoubtedly make.

 Kind regards
