Last week, our outgoing Senior Prefect Team enjoyed a special farewell lunch with the Senior Leadership Team and members of our governing body in recognition of their outstanding contributions to Tranby.
Throughout their tenure, this exceptional group of students has demonstrated unwavering dedication, leadership, and a commitment to giving back to the school community. Whether through mentoring younger students, leading initiatives, or representing Tranby with pride, they have each left an indelible mark on the school.
As they embark on their next chapter, we thank them for their hard work and passion. Their impact will be felt long after they have left, and we are immensely proud of all they have achieved. We wish them every success in the future and look forward to seeing all that they go on to accomplish.
Their reflections on their time at Tranby highlight the lasting friendships, skills, and values they have gained - testaments to the strength of our school community.
"Tranby has not only shaped my character and values but also taught me the true meaning of leadership - one rooted in empathy, service, and the desire to make a positive impact on those around me."
"Finishing the 16th year of my tenure at Tranby as Head Boy has been a privilege, the opportunities which have arisen from holding the position have been invaluable."
"Being part of the Senior Prefect team has been an incredible opportunity that I believe has helped to set me apart from others, particularly on university applications. It has also given me the chance to learn new skills, especially developing my public speaking."
"I look back on my time at Tranby with great fondness, and I am extremely proud of all I have achieved here. The unwavering dedication and efforts of all staff and my peers have enabled me to not only academically thrive, but have also made me into a well rounded and diverse individual, confident in my ability to succeed in life after leaving here. Being a Senior Prefect has been the perfect opportunity for me to give back to the community that has given me so much."
"Having been a part of the school for 13 years, I have really loved my journey. The friendships I have made has been one of my highlights and the supportive nature of the school has been incredible throughout. Being appointed the role of Head Girl was a privilege and an honour and being part of a school environment, which values excellence and growth has been wonderful. I am really going to miss all those who have supported me and I will never forget the moments I have experienced."
"I love this school. The unending support combined with the strong community feel and clear passion from all teachers has been invaluable. Wanting to give back as much as I could, applying to be a prefect was a no-brainer for me. My role as a prefect and Chair of School Council has enabled me to develop and deepen relationships with people from across the school community and to create positive change. I cannot thank Tranby enough for what it has done for me and hopefully I’ll be back soon enough to carry on inspiring pupils."
"Being a Senior Prefect has been an incredible journey. I’ve learned that even the smallest actions can make the biggest differences. It’s been a privilege to give back to Tranby, a school that has given me so much. My advice is to always give your all—what you put in now will pay off in ways you won’t expect. My time at Tranby, especially being in this role, has given me skills and experiences that I know will stay with me forever."
"My time at Tranby has been utterly fantastic and I’m so grateful for everyone who has supported me throughout. Good luck to next year's Senior Prefect Team!"
"My time at Tranby has bettered me in nearly every way and has provided some of the best times of my life."
