The democratically elected Council is student run and is a must for potential leaders and those interested in politics or government. The Council ensures that student voices and concerns are heard and advocates for student rights. At the start of each School year each form elects a male and female Student Council Representative who serves on the Student Council body. Each year the Student Council identifies and undertakes a project.
The Student Council is a representative body of the students elected by their peers
to give voice to the opinions and desires of the students.
The Council is the official organ of united students’ expression to the Administration of the school. Through the Council, lines of communication are kept open between the student body and administration.
Each Form selects a Boy and a Girl as Form Monitors at the beginning of each year. The same Form Monitors for term one may serve for terms two and three, as long as the Form Teacher approves.
The form monitor is in control when a teacher is absent. All students should remember that the form monitor is an important extension of the disciplinary structures of the school and even more important an extension of the school’s administration.
There are four houses which were named after persons who have contributed to School. All Students are placed in a house when they are admitted into the school and they are expected to participate in all activities of the house.
