​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​At Atherton State High School, leadership is about more than wearing a badge,​​ it is about making a difference.

We believe every student has the potential to lead, inspire others and contribute positively to our school community. Through a wide range of leadership opportunities, students are encouraged to develop confidence, communication skills, teamwork, responsibility and the courage to step outside their comfort zone.

Whether leading a parade, mentoring younger students, representing student voice, organising events or supporting community initiatives, our student leaders play an important role in shaping the culture and spirit of Atherton SHS.

Leadership at Atherton SHS provides students with opportunities to:

  • Build confidence and resilience
  • Develop teamwork and communication skills
  • Represent their peers and student voice
  • Contribute to school and community events
  • Develop real-world leadership experience
  • Create positive change within the school community

We are proud of the positive, inclusive and student-focused leadership culture that exists at Atherton SHS and encourage all students to get involved and make the most of the opportunities available.
