ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE 2022 ACTING PREFECT & HOUSE LEADERS
THEME: LEADERSHIP – RITES OF PASSAGE
The theme of today’s special assembly is on leadership and rites of passage. The boys who are appointed today as acting prefects and acting house leaders have all gone through a very thorough and rigorous process. This is of course not the end but the beginning. They are here and will only be able to achieve success with your support. Please ensure that you all get behind them 100% as from today so that they can be the best leaders that they can be.
“‘To lead people, walk beside them…As for the best leaders, the people do not notice their existence. The next best, the people honour and praise. The next, the people fear; and the next the people hate… When the best leader’s work is done the people say, ‘We did it ourselves!’
Lao-tsu
‘So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.’ 1 Corinthians 3:7
‘Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.’
Proverbs 22:6
‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife’
Genesis 2: 24
A prayer for College:
“Dear Lord, please guide and bless us as we pass through the various stages of our lives and experience the rites of passage as we move towards adulthood.
We pray for the leaders of 2022 as they assume their roles over the next number of weeks and trust that you will continue to guide and bless them in your name we pray.
Amen.”
Appointment of Acting Prefects 2022
It gives me great pleasure to announce the list of Acting Prefects names. These boys will all be attending two days of training starting from today.
Appointment of Acting House Leaders 2022:
It is now my pleasure to also announce the Acting House Leaders for 2021. These boys play an integral part along with the House Captain, Vice Captain, Housemasters and Assistant Housemaster and mentors in running and leading the houses in a variety of portfolios. There will be training for these boys later today.
Our formal induction ceremony for the prefects, house leaders and shouting captains will be announced at the Passing of the Drum ceremony early next term.
