Hey everyone, my name is Ely, and I’m in Grade 9. Some things I enjoy are reading books amidst nature, going to the beach, public speaking, having meaningful conversations, eating seasonal fruits, and listening to music! Last year was my first year with Student Voice, and it was absolutely awesome. I’m so excited to be back at it again. This year, my aim is to make people aware that your voice matters in all aspects of life, whether it's about the way assignments are handled or the security of schools. Your voice will always be valued. Even if you want to make a small change, it could make a big difference for other students who feel the same way. Together, let’s work to make school feel like a second home—a home where everyone will feel safe and secure to voice their opinions. 📣

Hey everyone! I’m Sanmeet, and I’m in Grade 10. I really enjoy going to school—especially studying Japanese and DTFM (food). I’m thrilled to be part of the Student Voice team again. I’m passionate about mental health and supporting LGBTQIA students. Being part of the Student Voice team has been incredible; I’ve already made so many cool new friends. I’m genuinely excited about the year ahead and collaborating with even more people to create a difference in BCE schools and education. A fun fact about me is that I’m a foundation student, which means I’m the oldest grade at my school and will be until I graduate! Let’s work together to foster an inclusive and supportive environment for all students!🍱

| Charley Hey everyone! I’m Charley, and I’m in Year 9. A bit about me: I love going to the beach, playing sports, and hanging out with friends and family. I’ve played netball for 8 years and Oztag for 3 years. I love binge-watching my favorite Netflix and Disney shows and movies (even though I’ve watched them hundreds of times). I’m so excited to be part of the 2025 Student Voice Team. This year, I want to be the change and make BCE schools even better. My goal is to contribute in ways that help make schools safer, more accessible, and create a welcoming environment for the BCE community. ⭐

Hey, I’m Shraddha, excited to be in year 10 and starting my fourth year as a Student Voice Consultant. I’m passionate about music, sports, art, and academics, and always eager to learn! What truly drives me is the belief that everyone deserves to feel valued, safe, and included. Every individual deserves to freely pursue their passions with poise and have the self-confidence to embrace themselves and their journey. I love empowering others to find their hidden potential and raise their unique voices. BCE Student Voice Program helped me found my voice. This opportunity has had an incredible impact on me, providing me with the platform to pursue my passion, free from judgment and surrounded by like-minded people. I've developed confidence, self-regulation, communication, public speaking, emotional intelligence, leadership, teamwork skills, and many more. Proud of our achievements, I'm eager for what this year holds. Let’s champion a world where every voice matters! 💪🏽

| Jordan Hey there! I'm Jordan, currently in year 9. I'm fascinated by astronomy, pop culture, and art, and I have a soft spot for axolotls and lynxes. I applied to be a consultant because I believe Student Voice deserves more emphasis, and I'm determined to change that. My vision is for our schools to become safe havens where students can freely express themselves and receive adequate mental health support. Collaborating with the Student Voice Network has been fulfilling, and I'm eager to inspire more individuals to join. I'm genuinely excited to explore the new opportunities this year holds and to see what positive changes we can bring about! 🌈

| Vashnavi Hi, I’m Vashnavi, and I’m in Year 10. I’m super thrilled to be part of the SV Consultants team for the 2nd time! I’m really into K-pop, K-dramas, food, and anything related to Korea. I’m also extremely proud of my home country, India. In my free time, I do Bollywood dance and Kuchipudi, which is a traditional Indian dance. I’m also part of an Indian dance group at school. I believe I’m a very enthusiastic person with wild ideas and ways to change our society. I joined Student Voice because I want to make a positive impact on our community and learn new skills like leadership and public speaking. Sharing my culture is something I love, and I want to inspire others to do the same without feeling embarrassed or judged. I’m hopeful that Student Voice in 2025 will help schools across BCE embrace our multicultural society and create new events where we can connect with the BCE community.💃
