Values, logo students understand
1 min read

STUDENTS at Inglewood Primary School have unveiled a new logo capturing values understood by students.
Junior school council members led the initiative that has seen “be kind” take the place of respect on the logo, “hard work” replacing achievement and “grow together” instead of community. 
Students said the new value words were better understood by younger pupils. They said students had voted to change the value words before they took their presentation to the school council for approval.
Key student leaders Thane Bull, Rhiannon Murphy, Natalie Smith and Jayden Smith then began sketching out ideas for a new logo that includes the names of school houses Koorooya, Loddon and Eucalyptus.
Teacher Morgan Ferguson took student drawings and digitally transformed them into the new logo that was unveiled last week.
Morgan’s finished artwork is already on school posters and will soon be used used school and classroom welcome mats.
Principal Lex Johnstone said: “These values are what our children believe encompass qualities of being a great human being.  They chose language they could understand and implement in their everyday lives both in school and out in our community.”
The school has also launched  a survey asking what each of the school values should look like when students are in public.
