Kingsmead College has announced the nine Grade 11 students who will be the leaders next year.
The students have been selected to represent in three groups including head girls, heads of houses and heads of art, sports and service.
The Rosebank Killarney Gazette spoke to some of the new leaders about their achievements.
“It was a surreal moment when I got announced as Kingsmead’s head of sport for 2018. Fulfilling this position has been a dream of mine since Grade 8 and one that has never dwindled over my high school years,” said Alexandra Lee. “I’m wanting to make an impact on Kingsmead’s sports that’ll be remembered and be able to carry on the good work that has been done by the heads of sport before me.”
Chantal Maina, the head of service said, “The whole grade was sitting together in a classroom for the announcement of the 2018 leaders and there was a collective sense of nervousness, hope and determination.
“When I was announced as Head of Service I could not contain my elation. Not only had it been the position I had desired but it was also the position that my peers had deemed fit for me through their voting. I am honoured to hold the position and to have a platform to make necessary changes and to promote sustainable growth in my school.”
Gabriella Kerby, the head of Kruger House said, “I will be responsible for ensuring that we are prepared and organised for any inter-house events, such as inter-house swimming and athletics. My main goals for next year are to promote pride and spirit, as well as to boost the unity of the girls within the house. I’m going to strive to make all ‘house events’ memorable, implement some new war cries and make Kruger feel like a true family.
The head girls will be Amukelani Mnisi, who will be the deputy head girl of organisation; Cayley Lovatt will be the deputy head girl for pastoral and Husnaa Bux will be the overall head girl.
Nina Veldtman will be the head of Timlin House, Tlhompho Khoncha will be the head of Baker House and Gabriella Kerby will be the head of Kruger House.
Luyanda Sokhulu will be the head of arts, Alexandra Lee will be the head of sport and Chantel Maina will be the head of service.
