“LEADERS BECOME GREAT NOT BECAUSE OF THEIR POWER BUT BECAUSE OF THEIR ABILITY TO EMPOWER OTHERS” said by John Maxwell. I Vanshika Deswal, the head girl of our School feel privileged as I open my heart down. On behalf of the school cabinet members I would like to thank our Principal, Teachers and Students who have always believed in us and our abilities to lead the school. To be appointed as the head girl is definitely a blessing as well as a great honour. For me, it has brought both a sense of pride and responsibility. My message to the students is that the future depends on what you do today, learn from yesterday and live for today. Be what you want to be and not what others want you to be. As Mahatma Gandhi rightly said “Be the change that you wish to see in the world”. Therefore we the cabinet members promise to stand up to all the expectations and fulfill our duties with complete dedication. We, as leaders are just to lead but work in collaboration with each other and to achieve the best for our school. We promise to work hard with all our zeal, devotion and determination. We will try our best and work persistently for the excellence of our school.

“One person with a belief is equal to a force of 99, who have only interests”.

Your dreams push you to try new things and that might mean that you may not succeed at first. But with determination, hard work and time; eventually you will.

Being the Head Girl of this institution for the session 2017-18, I Pratima Sharma consider it as a great opportunity: an opportunity to inculcate values, discipline and harmony in the lives of others; an opportunity to lead by example. This indeed is an opportunity to create a shared vision for a better society.

This institution is extraordinary because it encourages each other to exercise our optimal potentialities. Our curriculum is not merely academic but strive to take advantages of every opportunity. It is because of St. Mary’s that I have changed and grown into a better person.

Many people would perceive the role of the Head Girl as one with greater power over others. I differ to support. For me the role of a Head Girl is one of responsibility. As a student leader, it becomes my responsibility to align student’s conduct and behavior with the principles and expectations of the school. I look upon this position to motivate the Marians to use the platform of various opportunities, provided by the school and participate with both a zeal to learn and a spirit to excel.

Also, I shall look forward to hear student’s view; lend them both an ear and a shoulder in order to fulfill my duties as a true leader.

My nine years of experience at St. Mary’s have shaped me into what I am today and it will help me to deal with the practical world in a more effective manner.

At last I can only commit that I will give my best to keep up the honour of this responsibility bestowed upon me.
