One of the most important jobs at Bangkok Prep in the first week of Term 3 is to elect our Head girl and boy for 2018/19. Applications were submitted on day one of school. The Sixth Form teachers were delighted with the response from our students – and it was great to see students having the confidence to apply.

The Head Girl and Boy are frequently called upon to represent the school at school events, meet with school visitors, help organise assemblies and be taken on projects that help improve the lives of students in school.

The Sixth Form Year Leaders and the Head of Sixth Form shortlisted the candidates based on their applications.

Finally, ‘hustings’ speeches were given and the Sixth Form, and Year 11 voted on their preferred candidates. The speeches were impassioned and very well delivered. All the candidates had original and interesting ideas for how to develop our school and how we can help all students to thrive at Bangkok Prep.

Finally, when the votes were counted were thrilled to announce
the results:

Head Girl – Calista Millar
Head Boy – Jaak Villanueva-Boonthanakit

We would like to thank our current Head Girl, Helena, and Head Boy, Josh, for leading the hustings. They have already had a meeting with Calista and Jaak to discuss their roles.
