After all, Haileybury Sport builds character. I want to help drive an inclusive, challenging and supportive culture while encouraging others to make champion choices on and off the field.”

School Vice Captain Wini Vudiniabola: “I am looking forward to working with the other student leaders and representing the Haileybury Senior School cohort and the School’s values. I hope to make student life at Haileybury greater and to strengthen the student dynamic between the boys and girls schools. At Haileybury, I have been exposed to opportunities which have helped shape me into the person I am today.” School Vice Captain Zara Scammell: “I am excited to be a representative for the student voice, initiating change when due, as well as continuing to foster the principles of the School. Making the School a safe, inclusive and respectful environment will be my main objective. I am excited to be working with a fantastic group of captains and teachers.” Sport Captain Josie Lawton: “I hope to continue the outstanding reputation of Haileybury and the spirit of the Hearts through inclusivity, encouragement, support and innovative ideas. As Sport Captain, I aim to promote the benefits of movement and activities contributing to health and mental wellbeing for students and teachers. My journey at Haileybury has been enjoyable, educational and rewarding.”
