Hillgrove Student Leadership
Hillgrove Secondary School develops student leaders through a servant leadership framework, equipping them with the skills and competencies to serve the school community through key events, training camps, and workshops.
Hillgrove adopts a servant leadership framework in developing its school leaders. Student Councillors are tasked to lead in key school events such as the Secondary 1 Orientation Programme, Student Forum and Staff Appreciation Day to hone their leadership competencies. During the March holiday, leadership workshops are conducted for office holders in the CCAs and class committees.
