Some of Rochester’s most respected names have taken up leadership roles at Rochester Primary School — this year’s school captains featuring children from the Rasmussen, Major, Cuttriss and Watson families.
Asher Rasmussen, Keeley Major, Judd Cuttriss and Jasmine Watson will lead the first half of the school year before a second group takes over for the second semester of 2023.
Keeley has already made headlines this year and will today find out if she has made it into the Victorian Under 12 girls cricket team. She was selected in a squad of 50 from which the final team will be selected.
Captains were also named for the long standing Gemini and Saturn houses, with Harry Rasmussen and Jordi Howe the Saturn leaders. Gemini captains are Ruby Ettershank and Louis Frawley.
Already the school has participated in lawn bowls and swimming events, with the athletics carnival on the schedule later this year. Gemini had been on an extended winning streak until Saturn broke the domination last year.
