Student Council

Christina WARWICK

Hi everybody, my name is Christina Warwick and I’m half Australian and half Canadian, though I was born in Hong Kong. I have been at DC since Year 1 and I have been elected to hold the title of Student Council Representative for Year 7 2021-22. As a Student Council Rep, I am excited to support all of you on this amazing Year 7 journey. In my spare time I enjoy doing many things including sports. I participate in swimming, soccer and running, back in 2019 I played for the under 11 soccer team along with the developmental swimming team and for two years I participated in running events. I believe that every students voice matters and every teacher’s voice matters. I can’t wait to guide Year 7 through this year, we are new to secondary but we can make a difference to the school.

Hazel CHEUNG

Hello, my name is Hazel. I’m from Hong Kong and was chosen by some of my peers to be a Year 8 Student Council Representative for 2021-2022. Outside of schoolwork, I enjoy hanging out with friends, making poorly made crafts on my favourite games and shows, ramen, and most of all just having a good time in general. I have been a class captain in Year 6 and a Student Ambassador in Year 7. I hope this year, although with COVID-19 restrictions can be as fun and memorable as every other year.

Daksh GUPTA

My name is Daksh Gupta, I am 13 years old, I was born in India and both my parents are from India. I joined DC halfway through Year 8, I wanted to make some changes, that made me sign up for the Student Council and surprisingly got the role. My hobbies are reading novels, playing the guitar, studying, playing tennis and socialising with my friends. I hope to make the learning aspect in Year 9 more engaging for students, as now the studies have gotten harder and students will definitely be stressed at one point.

Crystal HUANG

Greetings! My name is Crystal, it’s a pleasure to be at your service as the Year 9 Student Council Elective. Congratulations to us! We’ve survived a year in the global pandemic, and as we continue to make efforts, adapting to new systems, schedules, expectations… there’s still an endless stream of challenges to face in the future. My aim is to further improve our learning environment, providing opportunities to support those who face struggles adapting. Whether it’s for the students or staff members, I hope to make long lasting impacts to benefit the years to follow. I’ve been admiring the past representatives of the Council for the longest time, which further determines me to contribute time and effort into the goals. Let’s make this year a memorable one.

Aaditya KUMAR

Hi, I am Aaditya Kumar and I’m honoured to be elected as the Year 12 Student Council representative for 2021-2022. I came to DC in Year 7 and have been extremely engaged in leadership opportunities within the school. I have been Year Level Ambassador several times and I was also chosen to be House Vice Captain in Year 10. My personal goal is to create meaningful bonds with the rest of the Student Council representatives. I believe I can achieve this by bringing my collaboration/communication skills to Student Council meetings. I think that not only is this an opportunity to be able to represent the school and my peers, it is also a crucial opportunity for me to develop as a Discovery College student. I am excited to work with the rest of the Student Council team and hopefully make significant changes to the school.

I will be sure to bring all these skills and passion into my role as Student Council. As Student Council, I will listen to your problems and whatever else you have to say and I will make sure that your voices and concerns are heard. I look forward to working with the rest of the Student Council team and strive to make a difference in Discovery College.
