STUDENT LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
October 2019
The new academic year kicked off with the planning of annual Student Leadership Conference. Organized
by students for students, the conference was brought to the Centennial community by the Student
Leadership Committee comprised of Centennial students Geina, Aslihan, Vipan, Jun, Denis, Maria and
co-chaired by Matt and Lubana, our Student Co-Chairs working with the Co-Curricular Student Learning
and Development team.
Conference Testimonial
I was privileged to work with a strong and spirited team of student leaders to plan,
organize and facilitate through icebreakers, ideation and innovation. This student
development experience added value to my life. I would like to encourage our
student community to join us for the next Student Leadership Conference.

Conference Committee, October 2019
Inspired by the theme Finding the Leader Within, the conference included hands-on activities to develop
the leadership mindset and practices students could apply in their daily lives. We met with and learned
from leaders and peers from across the Centennial community and completed workshops that matched
our own leadership interests.
CLA FIRST: For the first time, the Student Leadership Conference offered childcare for children of students
during the event. This free service enabled a greater number of students to participate in the events we
hold outside of regular school hours. Thank you to Jordan Robinson and the Athletics and Recreation team
for providing such a fun day for our youngest participants!
