Investiture Ceremony 2024: A New Era of Student Leadership
Introduction to the Investiture Ceremony
At Standard Public School, we celebrated the Investiture Ceremony on 4th July 2024, marking a significant event in our academic calendar. The journey began in June when students filed their nominations. After thorough scrutiny of their forms, the nominees moved to the next stage of campaigning, which lasted for several days.
Electronic Voting System
The election day, 12th June, was a historic moment for our school as we introduced an electronic voting system for the first time. We are proud to share that the app for electronic voting was developed by our very own student, Chi. Darshil GV of Grade 10. This innovative approach added a modern touch to our election process and showcased the technical prowess of our students.
Formation of the School Prefectorial Board
Following the declaration of results, a school prefectorial board was formed through a meticulous selection process. This board gives the office bearers a real-life experience of functioning as an official administrative body, preparing them for future leadership roles.
The Investiture Ceremony
On the day of the Investiture Ceremony, the elected student council members were honored with their respective badges by the Principal and coordinators. The badges were conferred upon the Head Girl, Head Boy, Vice Head Boy, Vice Head Girl, Sports Captain, House Captains, and Cultural Captain. This moment of recognition was a proud occasion for the students and their families.
Oath Taking and Responsibilities
The student council members took an oath to faithfully perform their duties towards the school. The Principal encouraged the newly elected office bearers to put in honest efforts and become an inspiration for others. The Investiture Ceremony is not just about providing titles; it is about conferring responsibilities to the students, empowering them to lead the school towards greater heights with their leadership, decision-making skills, communication, and teamwork.
Conclusion of the Ceremony
The event concluded with the singing of the School Anthem, followed by the National Anthem. It was indeed a memorable day of celebration, marking the beginning of a new era of student leadership at Standard Public School.
