State school officially welcomes leaders

A WAVE of new leaders were inducted at Cannonvale State School on Wednesday afternoon with up to 40 roles distributed.

Principal Angie Kelly looked on with sheer pride as the students accepted their badges from special guests Mayor Jennifer Whitney, Eco Barge Clean Seas founder Libby Edge and Proserpine State School principal Don McDermid.

Ms Kelly quoted Mother Teresa and Steve Jobs in an encouraging speech to prepare the leaders for the year ahead.

She also mentioned that seeking the best for the school wasn’t just a role for elected leaders but everyone and expects all students to work together to better the school community.

In fun and funky Cannonvale State School fashion, the assembly concluded with a school boogie to the hit track Everything is Awesome from The Lego Movie.

“Because everything is cool when you’re part of a team,” Ms Kelly said.
