Meet our Junior Leadership Team (JLT)

2025/2026

Head Prefect

Hello, my name is Gaile Quemuel, and it is an honour to serve as Head Student this year. I am proud to represent a community that has shaped me into the person I am today, from the heartfelt support and encouragement of our staff, to the strength of our tight knit student community. Since joining the school in Year 7, I have grown in ways I never imagined possible. The opportunities I've been given, the friendships I've built, and the challenges I've faced have each played a part in helping me discover strengths and passions I didn't know I had. Our Ursuline values are not just words we speak, but principle that have woven themselves into my daily life, guiding me both inside school and outside of school.

As Head Student, my goal is to give back to this school tenfold the support it has given me. I am to continue building on the legacy of service, faith, and excellence that makes our Ursuline community so special, leaving behind something meaningful for future generations of students.

Deputy Head Prefect

Hi, My name is Marilisa, and I’m thrilled to have been appointed as Deputy Head Girl at St Ursula’s. Throughout my 4 years at the school, I have strived to show immense amounts of dedication and resilience both in and outside of the classroom. Accomplishing many goals and achievements such as helping host a culture week celebration at school, helping the school on open evenings or even assisting in the passion play. Through my acts of service, I have learned what it is to be a leader and I aspire to create a safe and healthy environment for students and staff. St Ursula’s has given me numerous amazing opportunities, and I’m excited to help ensure that future students have the same experiences. St Ursula’s encourages its students to excel academically and personally, fostering a wonderful community that has supported my growth into a confident and diligent student.

I’m eager to collaborate with my peers to enhance our school even further! I always strive to treat others with respect and kindness, which I think is essential for my position, and I look forward to connecting with students from all year groups. Additionally, I believe working hard in school is crucial for success. I can’t wait to team up with the student Leadership Team to promote the positive and cheerful spirit of St. Ursula’s and complete our school ethos of service to others by serving our school community

Senior Prefect

Hi, I’m Amanda, I am delighted to be able to serve as Senior Prefect and Leader of the Wellbeing Prefects sector at St Ursula’s Convent School. In these roles, I represent our student body, help organise events and work to create a supportive and inclusive environment. I am passionate about fostering positivity and promoting the mental, emotional, and social wellbeing of my peers. It’s an honour to contribute to my vibrant school community and cultivate ideas to make my already great school even greater.

Senior Prefect

My name is Angel, and I would say that St. Ursula’s nonetheless has been an experience, yet one I would not change even if I were to go back. As a person, it was the environment where I experienced the most exhilarating and explosive part of my youth. I was constantly surrounded and supported by people who were like-minded as me and teachers whose enthusiasm and work ethic constantly inspired me in many aspects, and unconsciously, I started to take up those qualities. I think that everyone should be able to experience a secondary school experience like mine, one that I am confident built an excellent foundation for my future, which is why leaving St. Ursula's is not a bittersweet moment but an intriguing, provocative, and impelling moment. I think rather than dreading taking my next steps, teachers compelled me to reach for new heights and aim for the best of my abilities. Throughout my time at this school, I learned ambition, self-discipline, courage, and perseverance, and the opportunities the school provided me to enhance these through roles like senior prefect and the diversity team are where I learned the power of my autonomy and finding confidence in my own voice and ideas.

To me, St. Ursula’s is a school that really taught me a lot. Coming into the school, I would be leaving as a different, improved individual looking forward to my next steps, and for that, I am deeply grateful.
