Hi! I am Suleman, the new School Captain of Bishop Vesey’s Grammar School. My best time at Vesey so far was last Summer when we played rounders and were treated to ice cream on the last day. Favourite food? I mean, the only thing better than a refreshing ice cream has to be my grandmother’s chicken curry and rice, which is so delicious I’d even consider resigning just to take a bite (just kidding... I hope!). I applied to this role in order to push my limits and develop myself into an experienced and skilled individual, and because I want to make a change in our school and improve the experience for every student here. My plans for next year revolve around the 3 L’s: to support Learning, increase Laughter and build Life skills. I will strive to unite the school, to be the best School Captain I can, and to leave a proud and positive legacy behind!
Hello, my name is Harry and I am a Deputy School Captain for 2022-23. During my 6 years here at Vesey I have thrown myself at every challenge, representing the school at all of our 3 major sports alongside academic events. I was encouraged to take this role as it offers me a chance to give back to this school which has given me so many opportunities such as the Cricket Tour of Sri Lanka. Through my time with this responsibility I hope to further the inclusivity of extra-curricular activities available here and support the house co-ordinators in reinvigorating the system here.

Hi everyone! My name is Millie and I am one of the new deputy school captains. My favourite food is biscuits, specifically bourbon biscuits, just in case anyone is interested! I have had so many opportunities and experiences since joining Vesey, but one of my highlights would definitely be when we went to London for an art trip. I had never been to London before so I enjoyed experiencing this new city, and it was great to look around the galleries. The reason I applied for this role is because I want to be able to make a significant impact on the Vesey community, whilst also trying to better myself as a person. Now that I have this role, I would like to create a greater support network for those who want to study arts or humanities post-18 as this is something that can be improved upon at our school. Also, I would like to create more methods of supporting the year 12s as they write their personal statements and prepare to apply to universities or apprenticeships.
