Our Senior Prefect Team play a central role in the day-to-day running of the school. They are chosen by a robustly democratic voting procedure which involves both their peers and their teachers. The students are given the opportunity, prior to the voting process, to outline to staff the contributions they have made to the life of the school community. Some of our new team can even boast of family connections in former Senior Prefect Teams with Katie having perhaps the most distinguished lineage. Her grandfather, the late Mr Raymond Hunter, was Head Boy of the school; he also had an illustrious sporting career winning international honours in two sports and touring with the British Lions rugby squad.
