Top Three 2022-2023

As with previous years we have been well served by our Prefect and Minister body. ey have been exemplary in many respects and shown a genuine compassion for many aspects of their roles. Our Top ree have also continued the tradition of demonstrating outstanding leadership skills: Samar, Aditya and Ella, have been rst-class. As I commented on at the Honours Dinner, where we say goodbye to our Upper VI, they have led with resilience and determination but they have also led with compassion, understanding and example. ey leave us this year very much in their debt. I comment on the quality of our Top ree at the end of every tenure and the danger of simply writing accolades as we thank those who have led our school is obvious.

However, they are sincere and they are especially true of Samar, Aditya and Ella: they have proved that leadership is simply not just command, it is not about coming rst and it is most de nitely not, by necessity, deserving of reward. e purpose of leadership is to serve, and all three have given a great deal to the school in not only their individual areas of interest but in many areas.

As we look towards the newly appointed top three and other Ministers and Prefects, we would encourage them to develop their own style but to follow the example of those who have led the School Council this year. Samar, Aditya and Ella, and all o cers of the School, thank you.
