Empowering leadership at The Queen’s School

Posted on 23rd Apr 2024 in School News

The new Head Girls' Team for The Queen’s School in Chester has been revealed with three exceptional young leaders poised to lead the Senior School pupils for the next year.

Alexa Byrne has been appointed Head Girl with Charlie Oakden and Manon Wagenaar joining her in Deputy Head Girl positions.

Earning these esteemed positions was no small feat. The selection process was rigorous, spanning multiple stages including a comprehensive written application, interviews with the Head and Deputy Head of Sixth Form, and the creation of compelling 'hustings' videos. Finally, the entire school community cast their votes, affirming the exceptional qualities of the newly appointed leaders.

All three Year 12 girls bring unique strengths and experiences to their roles. Alexa's prowess on the hockey pitch and in Model United Nations debating sets a high standard for leadership and dedication. Charlie's recent involvement in directing the stage show 'We Will Rock You' showcases her creativity and collaborative spirit. Meanwhile, Manon's innovative hustings video, featuring a four-legged canine supporter, reflects her fresh perspective and inclusive approach to leadership.
