Federal Member for Gippsland Darren Chester has congratulated the newly appointed student leaders at Nambrok-Denison Primary School, following a visit to the school’s assembly to present leadership badges for 2026.
Mr Chester thanked the school community for the warm welcome and said he was always inspired by young Gippslanders who stepped forward to lead and support their classmates.
“Student leadership roles in primary school help young people build confidence, responsibility and a strong sense of community from an early age,” Mr Chester said.
“Whether it’s school captain, house captain, sports captain or student council, these roles give students the opportunity to make a positive difference in their school.
“These opportunities can build confidence and spark an ongoing commitment to volunteering, community service and civic participation.
“Well done to the teachers and parents in supporting our young leaders of the future to have such a positive impact.”
