The Prefects acts as the liaison between Principal, Staff and the rest of the student
population. By virtue of being a Prefect, Leadership is entrusted on oneself. Those who have
developed the leadership qualities while being a Prefect have become successful personnel in
later life.
Up to about the 1980's only 12 students from the Advance Level classes were chosen as
Prefects by the Principal and the staff of the school. Invariably the Cricket & Rugby
Captains & the Cadet Senior Sergeant were chosen as Prefects for the leadership qualities in
their respective disciplines. These identified boys were looked upon with awe by the rest of
the students. These were certainly coveted positions in the school. There was the Head
Prefect, but there were no Deputies elected.
