I have been a member of the NGHS community since Year 7 and I am currently studying Biology, Chemistry, History and Maths A-Level. I am extremely proud to be the Head Girl of such a prestigious and academically able school, especially in the 100^th anniversary of NGHS. My primary roles are to not only promote the school but also help to integrate and welcome the new Year 7’s and Year 12’s into our community. Through this role I hope that my team and I are able to promote all the opportunities that Newport Girls’ has to offer and help students attending our school reach their full potential.

I have been a student at Newport Girls since Year 7 and I am currently studying English literature, History and German at A-level. My role as Deputy Head Girl includes continuing to maintain the high standards of health and wellbeing already prevalent within our school, whilst also raising awareness of personal safety. Chairing the health and wellbeing committee and supporting with the PSHE programme are some of my main responsibilities. Overall, I hope to continue to develop the health, wellbeing and safety of students within NGHS whilst working with the rest of the Head Girl Team in order to have a positive impact on our school environment.

My name is Orla O’Byrne and I am the Deputy Head Girl with the particular focus area of Academic Chair and Sixth Form Council. I am currently studying English, Maths and History at A Level but I also enjoy music, drama and sport. If you feel like you would be interested in becoming or mentor or would like to be mentored yourself please do not hesitate to contact me via my school email. I will also be the chair of Sixth Form Council so if any member of Year 12 or 13 has any ideas please feel free to email me at any time and I will accumulate all input as part of the next agenda. I am greatly looking forward to making a difference to our school as part of the Head Girl Team, and hopefully add to what is already a strong atmosphere of learning.

I joined the school for sixth form in Year 12 to study the A levels History, Economics and Psychology. Despite being worried that joining a new sixth form would be daunting, I entered with a warm welcoming and feel privileged to be involved with the school. I have able to grasp several opportunities since joining, including becoming Deputy Head of Integration. My role will allow me to use my own experience to help new Year 12’s settle into the school and make new friends, both before and when they join. I will also be working with the Head Girl Team to develop whole school integration and promote NGHS6.

I have been a student at the school since Year 7, and I am currently studying four A level subjects: Biology, Chemistry, Maths and Further Maths. My role as Deputy Head Girl with responsibility for Community, Careers & British Values, involves engaging with both our students and outside organisations to strengthen links, and provide everyone with the best opportunities in preparation for higher education and ultimately the world of work, as well as raising awareness of the importance of these valuable British principles within a school environment to uphold the high level respect that NGHS is proud of.
