Onslow College is a state co-educational secondary school located in Johnsonville, a suburb of Wellington, New Zealand. The school opened in 1956 to serve the city's rapidly growing northern suburbs. The current principal is Mr Peter Leggat.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Onslow College Newsletter ) 〕 ==The Onslow Way== The ''Onslow Way'' differentiates Onslow College from other schools in that the college does not have prefects, Head Boys or Girls or college houses. To replace the 'responsibility void' left by lack of a prefect system, Onslow College has championed the ''peer mediation'' system, where trained students talk to their peers about incidents that have occurred at school, such as bullying, isolation or drug use. This allows students to feel more comfortable while discussing these issues, without fear of retribution which invariably arises in a staff member's presence. Students also have a large say in the running of the school. Each form class elects one or two representatives to a year level council, which then in turn appoint representatives to the school student council. Students can also put their own names forward for nomination for the board of trustees. The student members of the board of trustees are appointed by a vote by the entire student body. Students also sit on panels for job applicants, property matters, and many other facets of the running of the school. The ''Onslow Way'' is also identified by students as a reference to the style in which the school encompasses, of being a liberal school which encourages individuality and self-expression. Because of this, Onslow has strength in the creative arts and supports a very popular music department and high numbers of students taking part in drama, art and photography as NCEA classes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Onslow College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
