Noluthando said the leadership announcement was a pleasant surprise. “Being announced house captain was such an exhilarating and euphoric experience. It was not initially a goal of mine, but I am appreciative of having the honour to lead the spirit of the school.”

The Grade 11 learner explained that she was given an opportunity to volunteer as house captain by sending in an application to the head of sports. Then, grades 10–12 learners, within each house, were given the opportunity to vote for their suitable candidate.

“To me, being house captain not only means cheering loudly; it means modelling the energy, the enthusiasm, and the positive attitude necessary. The main thing that I would like to achieve is to influence the school to have exceptional spirit, which can turn a sports match, an assembly, or an event into something the school will always remember.”

Noluthando also takes part on the school marimba band in her spare time.
