Social Network Leaders
The Social Network Leaders form a group of committed and caring students in Year 10. The group welcomes new EALD students to our school and helps them become part of the Yeronga State High School community. As Social Network Leaders, students support young people newly arrived from diverse cultural backgrounds during their settlement in Australia and provide information regarding schooling in Australia. During Milpera State High School transition support days, Social Network Leaders facilitate educational and peer relationship-building activities for new students and provide practical advice and peer support before they transition to mainstream schools across Brisbane.
Our Social Network Leaders also organise Harmony Day ceremony/activities and lead Y-Tours for parents around the school. Being a Social Network Leader is a stepping stone to future leadership positions at Yeronga State High School.
