Student Bodies and Leadership Groups
A number of student and leadership groups exist at the school. The Prefect Body is a group of seniors selected by the students and teachers of the school to lead the student body in all aspects of Churchie life. It is led by the three school vice-captains and the School Captain, who are collectively known as the Student Executive. The Head Boarder is the leader of the boarding students. The Student Council is a student organisation, led by the Speaker of the House (a school vice-captain) and the two managers-of-business, consisting of the assembly and the cabinet. The Middle School Leaders are a group of students selected within the middle school to work with students in grades seven, eight and nine. Service Coordinators is a group of seniors selected within their houses and led by the President of Service who encourage service within the school.
Since 2008, Boys in Year Nine must participate in one of the either one of the Tri-service cadets, community service or scouts. Boys must commit to these until the end of Year Nine, and if they wish to continue until Year Twelve, they are eligible for the Duke of Edinburgh Awards.

Fierce heads looked out; small bodies pivoted.
We rose to go. Sunset blazed on the windows.”

“This I do know and can say to you: Our country is in more danger now than at any time since the Declaration of Independence. We don’t dare follow the Lindberghs, Wheelers and Nyes, casting suspicion, sowing discord around the leadership of Franklin D. Roosevelt. We don’t want revolution among ourselves.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“... until both employers’ and workers’ groups assume responsibility for chastising their own recalcitrant children, they can vainly bay the moon about “ignorant” and “unfair” public criticism. Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
