For more than a week the contestants for the appointments of Head Girl, Head Boy and House Captains for the four Houses of the school gave election speeches in the morning assembly to impress the voters. Their speeches were effective, promising and assertive. Their supporters canvassed for them in earnest and it was very difficult to guess the winners.
