Primary Campus Leadership Program

The college student leadership program encourages primary and secondary students to collaborate and contribute to their college and local communities. The program is divided into four pillars: academic, cultural, sporting, and community, and students are elected into leadership positions that fall under these pillars. Campus Captains are elected in Year 6 through a competitive process, while unsuccessful candidates may become Pillar Leaders or Student Ambassadors. Campus Captains are responsible for leading one of the four pillars with the support of Pillar Leaders and Student Ambassadors.

The program emphasizes teamwork, cooperation, and regular communication between campus leaders, administration, and teacher mentors to identify opportunities for service and support. The journey towards leadership begins in Year 3, where students who display positive attitudes and leadership potential are given opportunities to develop and practice their skills. By the time they reach Year 6, students are equipped with the skills, abilities, and desire to become effective leaders and serve their community.

Secondary Campus Abassador Program

Great leaders are nurtured and developed by providing great opportunities for students to step forward and lead the way, to experience and be exposed to leaders in different fields and to learn how to inspire and motivate others.

Varsity College ambassadors form part of the public face of the college and are aligned with the four pillars of the school: academic, cultural, sporting and community. Being an 'Ambassador' is a great responsibility and students will have specific duties, events and activities to participate in such as Open Days, ANZAC Day, school carnivals, special events, student mentoring and various charity work. Varsity ambassadors also form an essential role in the induction of new students into the college by supporting a young adult's transition to a new environment and orientation to a new school.

The program focuses on educating students about what leadership means through the student leadership challenge and the five practices of exemplary leadership: model the heart, inspire a shared vision, challenge the process, enable others to act and encourage the heart. This process culminates in our official positions, Year 12 Student Leaders and College Captains.

Secondary Campus Leadership Program

Varsity College senior school leadership consists of College Captains, Pillar Captains, Pillar Leaders and House Captains. The college Senior Leaders will be responsible for working under one of the four pillars that represent Varsity College: academic, cultural, sporting and community.

Together the Captains and Senior Leaders will work with student ambassadors from other year levels to achieve student-inspired goals and objectives under the four pillars. We encourage our leaders to leave a legacy here at Varsity College, a legacy that will grow and future leaders can continue to develop.

It is important that our leaders embrace the college values and help to grow these amongst our student body.

Varsity College has multiple opportunities for students to apply for official leadership roles. However, here at Varsity, students don't have to apply to be leaders – we view every student as a leader.
