"True leaders don't just shine a light, they ignite a warmth that spreads."

This year as Prefects, we stand with a group of twenty two hardworking and passionate cabinet members, each one dedicated to making our school a place of not only academic excellence but also of compassion, growth and leadership. As Prefects, we don’t come with all the answers but we come with a promise to walk beside you -to listen, to lift you up and to help students find the balance between strength and kindness, boldness and humility. We thank and sincerely wish for this institution to thrive—be it in academics, sports or co-curricular activities. We wholeheartedly dedicate ourselves to StJoseph’s Convent, for this institution has shaped the way we choose to walk, talk, act and do justice to our post. We don’t lead because we are better than others, we lead because we choose to make a difference. Here’s to embracing the challenges, supporting one another, and leaving a mark that lasts, not because we had to, but because we wanted to.

"Leadership is practiced not so much in words as in attitude and actions."

It is the mist of difficulty, storm and turbulent water that a leader is made and the metal is tested. Leaders are made with hard work, dedication, will-power, and swimming against the current of hardships….united, hand-in- hand, with the great collection of views, vibrant personalities each with a different color enhancing the beauty of the canvas. These are the value engrained in us since the very start by our sisters, teachers and we owe a great dear to our alma mater, St Joseph’s Convent Sen. Sec. School, Bathinda and we can never return all that this institution has embodied in us, but we promise to take this school to greater heights by growing and helping each other grow with firm belief in ourselves as well as others. Through faith, trust and honesty we promise to outstretch our hand to help each other through all odds. We vow not to point out each other’s flaws rather complete each other. We as a team of twenty-six leaders, each with a unique personality promise to lead, serve and carry the legacy with a sense of responsibility, team work and most importantly faith in the ultimate force. Together, We will rise!

"“Leadership is about taking responsibility not making excuses”"

This is what our alma mater St Joseph’s Convent Sen Sec School, Bathinda has imbibed in us. In order to dig the layers for optional discipline and talent, one has to unravel the need to put one’s heart and soul into one’s duties and responsibilities. “Do not fear shadows, they simply mean that, Light is shining nearby”. We are a cabinet of twenty two hard working and devoted leaders who will work day in and day out to take our school to greatest heights. The biggest challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant. We on behalf of the entire cabinet promise to overcome this challenge, do justice to our assigned duties and bring laurels to our institution. At last we would like to quote, “The harder you work for something, the greater you’ll feel when you finally achieve it”. So, to achieve anything, be a true and responsible Josephite!
