Head boy - Francois du PlessisOn 15 January 2025, Francois du Plessis became head boy: an arduous role that goes beyond its title. His dedication to the student body is evident through his involvement, but such involvement brings challenges. “What makes it easier is prioritising,” he explains. He understands that his role requires sacrifices, which help him manage demands.Francois believes effective leadership comes from confidence in one’s own leadership style. To him, it’s not about superiority but guiding others to unlock their best selves.
