2024 Biyala House Captains

Murray House

Lucy Ludlow

I applied for the role of House Captain for Murray House because I want to make a positive impact on the high school experience of Murray students in 2024. With previous leadership roles under my belt, I was excited to take on this opportunity to be a leader that others can look up to, share their ideas with and be assured that together we can make Murray the best it can be!

I hope to help achieve a greater sense of belonging and comradely amongst students in Murray house, and hopefully school wide! I hope to do this by organising and running more fun school events and activities for students to get involved in and connect with others through. And of course, encouraging participation in good ol’ events like the Athletics Carnival.

A little bit about me; I love art and singing and am one of four children in my family. I actually have an identical twin sister, Stephanie, who I love to perform with at school and in the Shepparton community as ‘The Ludlow Twins’.
