​​​​Handsworth Student Council 2022 - 2023

​Nargess Shokouhian
Co-President​
NS.jpg
​Hey Handsworth! I’m Nargess Shokouhian (she/her/hers) and I am one of your 2022/2023 Co-Presidents. I have been in Student Council since Grade 9 and I was previously the Diversity Rep. This year, I, along with Duncan Murch, plan to put on loads of fun events such as sports tournaments, theme days and festive activities. I hope to make this school year the best it can be. A little bit about me: outside of Council, I have multiple other leadership roles: I am the 
Co-President of the Art Club, the Yearbook Coordinator, and a Grade 8 Retreat Leader! My biggest leadership role is one that is outside of school, where I am a tennis coach. This role does not only stem from my love for tennis, but it has also taught me countless leadership skills, which will undoubtedly make me a better Co-President. Aside from the time I spend playing tennis, I also love to ski, read, watch sunsets, and take lots and lots of photos. I enjoy spending time with my friends and love to socialize. I hope to use my organization skills, motivation, and dedication to make school a more fun and comfortable space for all! ​

​Noa Mammone
Secretary

​Hey everyone! My name is Noa Mammone (she/her/hers), and I am your 2022/2023 student council Secretary! The past couple of years have been a whirlwind of new learning opportunities for everyone and my goal through Student Council is to help us all migrate towards new beginnings. In my time at Handsworth, I have assisted in the arts department, been a Grade 11 Representative in council, a member of the District Student Leadership Council, the student representative in Policy 409: Anti-Racism and Equity through Cultural Diversity, as well as presidential roles in 2 of Handsworth’s clubs, Jack.org and Art Club. Outside of school, I enjoy adventuring with my friends, music, art, cooking, baking, and working! With my organization, communication, and time-management skills that I have expanded over the last year in Student Council I know can bring those to the position of Secretary. I will strive to make sure that Handsworth and the school district is an inclusive, safe space for the students in our community. ​​

I’m excited to be a part of the student council this year as your treasurer again, and I’ll make sure to provide you all a fair budget that’ll give you all a chance to enjoy the things you love to do.

Hey there! My name is Charlie Caddick (he/him). This year, I am going to be your Arts/Athletic Student Council Rep for 2022-2023. I was born in Vancouver, and I moved to North Vancouver in Grade 7 where I started at Cleveland Elementary. I love sports and have played on a number of sports teams including soccer, ultimate, sailing and flag football. I also love skiing, hiking and camping. I have also always been very passionate about theater. I have been a part of the pre-professional program at Arts Umbrella for 3 years and really looking forward to getting more involved with the Handsworth theater program and the final play in Grade 12. The Arts/Athletic Council Rep position requires someone engaged, enthusiastic and social, and I believe that I have all of those qualities. As well as that, I was the Arts/ Athletic Rep last term, so I have the expertise to run and improve all of the current and future events. Finally, you can always message me on Microsoft Teams if you have any suggestions or comments.​
