I am Areeba Bilal, and I am honoured to serve as the Girls College Captain for 2024. I have been a part of the SRC team since Year 7 and have thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with fellow students on various community projects and events.
My primary goal is to foster connections within our student community, bridging the gap between younger Secondary students and Seniors. I believe it is crucial to unite both upper and lower Secondary levels to collectively make a positive impact on our community and extend support to those in need.
I am committed to representing our College and community to the best of my ability. Moreover, I aim to showcase our Islamic faith positively within the broader public and non-Muslim community.

My name is Mohammad Awwady and I am the College Captain for boys for 2024. Everything I do must be related back to Allah (SWT), or it is pointless in my eyes.
I aspire to be the best version of myself every day, assisting, guiding, and encouraging others along the way. My message is simple: People have the chance to change, and the way to change is to never give up on the mercy of Allah (SWT).
I have had a significant personal journey, transforming who I was and what I aimed to be. Despite these changes, I never perceive myself as better than others. In fact, I see everyone as better than me, always ready to learn with an open mind. My wish is nothing but the best for others, even if it impacts me.
By the will of Allah (SWT), I aim to spark change in others and inspire them to be better. While recognizing that people are not perfect, I believe they must always strive for Ihsaan (perfection). My goal is to contribute to the betterment of others, leaving an impact that lasts longer than I do.
Brotherhood is a value I hold dearly, commending and endorsing it. By uplifting the right, I hope to refine others by casting away the wrong. This allows the will of others to be sincere, echoing the saying: ‘You will be what you will to be’.
No matter the outcome, I am always resilient and willing to adapt. In summary, I serve others to obey Allah (SWT).
