Our school Houses are named after four famous Kiwis who represent our BEST values: Jean Batten, Peter Blake, Edmund Hillary, and Kate Sheppard.
Year 6 children who express and interest in becoming a House Leader complete an application form, are given problem-solving tasks, and attend a group interview. The teachers then have the difficult, yet enjoyable, task of narrowing down and selecting 12 deserving Leaders from a large group of worthy candidates. The House Leaders endeavour to lead their Houses with the Botany Downs ‘BEST’ values in mind.
Congratulations to the following students who have been selected as House Leaders for 2022:
BATTEN House: Anthony Xu, Mia El Chami, Madison Kong
BLAKE House: Jesse Elliott, Mila Carr, Selena Wu
HILLARY House: Dhyna Patel, Yufei (Emma) Li, Ella Hartnoll
