Student Government Association
Every student at the OSC is a member of the Student Government Association (SGA) a forum for their voice designed to encourage a sense of responsibility, leadership and service. The organisation helps maintain a high level of cooperation and school spirit, extending to the Primary School also in the form of the PSGA.
The SGA consists of an Executive Committee and a membership of two elected representatives from each grade level guided by a teacher supervisor. The representatives attend weekly meetings to provide feedback on students’ requirements, ideas and issues, and two SGA representatives also attend School Board meetings.
