Primary School Election & Investiture 2014 by Ms. Vandana Parashar


Pathways School Noida recently witnessed the excitement and euphoria of the Primary Students council election.
All the 20 young leaders were ecstatic after the announcements for their posts.  Of course there were some sighs as expected, but that’s natural. All of them congratulated each other in true sportsman spirit.
The whole process took 3 weeks to complete. Beginning with announcing the posts and the responsibilities where students realized that being a council member is not as easy as it appears. All the students who had spent one academic year in school were allowed to contest of various positions. Our School principal Mrs. Usha Lamba conducted a workshop on ‘what makes a good leader’ which enabled students to grasp the qualities of a leader. With this base, Grade 5 students voted for top 20 students who according to them possessed those qualities.
These top students interacted with Dr. Advani and Mrs. Lamba and shared their plans for the primary school.
These 20 candidates began campaigning soon after through extremely creative and innovative posters. The entire school was brimming with energy and excitement as the
students went ahead with their campaign. A couple of days later, all 20 made speeches in front of the students of Form 3, 4 and 5 to ensure that people get to know them and subsequently help them win.
On the day of polling, the fervor all across the school was really invigorating and we all could sense it. Students of Grade 3, 4 and 5 voted for their favorite
candidate and chose their leaders. The results were announced by our school director Dr. Advani who congratulated the newly elected council and encouraged them to take on their positions with lot of enthusiasm and dedication. Students were elated with the results and are looking forward to do put their plans into action! We wish them all the best for this year and hope they make us proud by their ideas and efforts.
