Our Student Leadership Team launched their theme for the College for 2017 with a powerful presentation at last week’s assembly.

EMPOWER HER.  

2017 Promotions Prefect, delivered the following address to the school body:

Domremy College has seen a number of impressive and powerful themes over the years, which have formed the foundations of each school year. The Student Leadership Team for 2017 were thus faced with much anticipation and high expectations this year when deciding in which direction they wanted to take the school in 2017. In Term 4, 2016, the Leadership Team, along with our Principal, Ms Awad and Year 12 Co-ordinator Miss Codamo, joined forces in an attempt to embody the vision they had for Domremy College. Many ideas were given consideration, and after much deliberation the theme was decided upon: EMPOWER HER.

Few can deny that empowerment is the key to gaining confidence and success. In 2017, the Leadership Team will be advocates for the celebration of individual talents. Acknowledging that each student is unique in their abilities and interests is integral to unlocking their potential, and by encouraging and supporting one another’s growth, every girl will have the opportunity to shine whether it be at academics, sport, music, art or the many other avenues available at Domremy.

An important aspect of the theme are the specialised categories assigned to each colour house.

Martina House will empower the girls to GROW  by encouraging them to take steps in their personal journey towards achieving wisdom and success, maintaining a growth mindset along the way.

Orleans House will empower girls to CONQUER their uncertainties and challenges, and to courageously confront them in order to accomplish their goals.

Nagle House will empower girls to SHINE, to better understand themselves and their capabilities, and to make the most of what they have to offer.

Notre Dame will focus on LOVE, as it is only through love and support that those around you will gain self-value and the humility that is crucial to a unified school community.

The theme serves to recognise individuality, because ultimately, each girl is unique, talented and remarkable.

Empowerment is the only way to make sure that she, too, can recognise this.
