Students at Macarthur Girls have a number of opportunities to take a leadership role within the school
Student Representative Council (SRC)
The SRC is the student voice within the school. It meets to discuss matters which students feel are important. It is run by students and provides an opportunity for them to voice the ideas and suggestions of the student body. Elections take place at the end of each year with the exception of Year 7, which is carried out early in Term 1.
