It wasn't until the very moment when the tears reached the corners of my eyes that I felt the true value of the post that I'd been bestowed upon and was about to enter. I was very unsure in the beginning as I was a new student to this institution and didn't know much, however it was the management and my peers standing beside me that made me respect and realize the true responsibility of this post. Therefore, it was with immense pride that I happily accepted both the pros and cons this post brought. Nonetheless I've always been very thankful to the school authorities who found me capable of this post and handed me this precious responsibility within the first week I joined.

As it is rightly said by Warren G. Bennis, “leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality ", I along with my team shall be working to the best of our abilities to translate the vision our founders saw while laying the foot stone of this school and turn it into reality one fine day.

I, Shubhdeep Singh, as the Deputy Prime Minister of the School's parliament, would like to extend my sincere vote of thanks to Fr. Principal, all the teachers and students who have entrusted me with this position. Leadership, in its essence, embodies the ability to guide and inspire others towards a common goal. It involves fostering a sense of unity, encouraging collaboration, and leading by example. However, amidst the responsibilities of leadership, it is crucial to always remember the value of humbleness. Humility allows us to listen, learn, and empathize with others, fostering a culture of inclusivity and respect. Together, let us embrace the spirit of leadership with humility and work towards a better future for our school community.

“We know we are firm. I know, and I affirm that at the core of our being, of my being, there is the fact of responsibility.”

It is evident that allegiance and responsibilities do not end with the election of leaders, but instead make a new beginning. In order to dig the layers for optimal discipline and talent, one has to unravel the need to put one’s heart and soul into one’s duties and responsibilities. It is consequently a great honour for me, the Head Boy of this bona fide institution, to have been entrusted with this Brobdingnagian responsibility for the year 2023-24. My overwhelming and unfeigned gratitude goes to Rev. Fr. Cidloy Furtado, Principal St. Xavier’s, the entire management and also to all the staff members. I acknowledge that leadership is not a path to privilege, it is but a responsibility; it is not an assertion of control over others – but the sincere desire to serve. I will deliver what I promise, without compromise. Along with our newly elected school parliament members, I will be ever ready with my armor on, to render my honest service to the school, and will leave no space for disappointments. It is coherent that my role demands dedication, organization, confidence and sacrifice which is why my constant endeavor will be to do justice to my eminent position and bring laurels to the school at all levels. I pray for God’s rich blessings on every member of the Xavierite family.
