Head Boy
Jay Nicholson YEAR 14
I am truly honoured to be appointed as Head Boy for the 2024-2025 period. I firmly believe that the experiences I have gained at Ashfield Boys’ High School, along with the opportunities presented to me, have only contributed to my personal development. I’ve had a great 6 years, and I can’t wait to finish my final year on a high as head boy.
Upon entering Year 8 in 2018, I found myself among just four students transitioning from my primary school, which understandably made me quite nervous and anxious. However, my worries were swiftly quashed. The support from both the staff and senior students was instrumental in helping me integrate into the Ashfield community, and I take great pride in being an Ashfield Boy.
At present, I am studying Government & Politics, Geography, and ICT. I have actively participated in the school’s rugby team from 1st -3rd year and I am now looking forward to embracing a new responsibility as Head Boy.
I am extremely grateful to be given the opportunity to not only lead the pupil leadership team but also our student council. We will continue to work together to develop ideas that will benefit the school, and more importantly every pupil. Everyone at Ashfield, regardless of age or year group. Everyone is encouraged to participate, and all ideas and suggestions will be appreciated and considered as we continue to enhance our vibrant and welcoming school community.
