“This year, I want to ignite a spark in every student. I want to transform challenges into triumphs and turn our collective energy into a force for positive change. I want to build a legacy where kindness echoes in our hallways, where every voice is valued, and where we rise together, stronger than ever. This isn’t just about making this year good; it’s about making it unforgettable,” head boy Oabakwe Wesi expressed.
Kamogelo Sixpence, head girl, described a good leader as someone who sets an example for others and hears others’ opinions.
A leader stands up for what is right.”
Deputy head boy George Harmse explained how he will be a good role model for those who follow him.
“I would show them that they should always respect the teacher and their fellow peers. I should also lead by example and do the same,” he said.
“I believe a good leader is honest, responsible, and a good listener. They lead by example, solve problems and support others. Leadership is not about power but helping people and making a positive difference,” said deputy head girl, Precious Nyanga.
