Oakleigh Grammar inducts its 2025 student leaders

Oakleigh Grammar has inducted its 2025 School leaders from the Junior, Middle and Senior Schools.

Attended by students, staff, parents and the Board, along with special guest the Hon. Ms Clare O’Neil, Member for Hotham, the assembly opened with an Acknowledgement of Country and the National Anthems of both Australia and Greece.

School Captain Alexander Korlos conducted an Opening Prayer before Principal Mark Robertson delivered his Principal’s Address, speaking of the important role our School leaders will play in inspiring students and embodying the School’s theme this year to ‘Aim High, Achieve More.’

Ms O’Neil was then welcomed to the stage by School Captain Anastasia Kaniadakis, who delivered a warm address to the students in attendance, speaking on the importance of doing what is right rather than what is popular, and everyone’s responsibility to act as leaders within their community.

The formal induction process saw 16 Senior School students, 12 Middle School and 15 Junior School students accepting their badges from Mr Robertson as School Leaders, each signing their name and making a pledge to Oakleigh Grammar as School Leaders.

There were also 26 School Representative Council students that were inducted across Year 6 to Year 12.

Families and inductees then enjoyed morning tea at the conclusion of the ceremony.
