“…and then one day you’ll find, ten years have got behind you, no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.”

When I am asked to give a message as the head boy for the year 2019-20, all the memories of these 14 years in St. Joseph’s school etched in mind suddenly poured out and nostalgia hit me like a tsunami hits a coast.

I feel as if all these memories, some dim, some elusive and some clear as crystal, tell me that school is so much more than just grades, uniform, discipline and assignments. I vividly remember the conversation with the Principal on the day I was elected the head boy. He was very happy and appreciated me for my privileged post; I also thanked him for the election format.

I would also like to share some life lessons which I follow and also wish that my juniors to follow them:
• Life is the one which runs fast, so enjoy it to the fullest….
• Try everything, so that later in your life you do not regret that ‘I could have done that…..’
• Always try to do some good work like giving food to the needy, helping an specially abled person and so on, I assure you you’ll feel so blessed….and remember that good deeds give sweet fruits.

Now, I could definitely say that I have enjoyed and experienced my school life to its fullest and am taking 8 Nationals and more than dozen of state championships, with those trips, fun, and so many joyful memories with me. And, being elected as a head boy of this prestigious institution is an icing on the cake. At last, I would just like to say,

“Be yourself, because you are unique and different”.

“A Leader is the one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way”.

I now realize the gravity of this quote, as one of the most important actions, a leader can do, is to lead by example. If you want everyone else to be passionate, committed, dedicated and motivated, you should go first !.

It is a matter of great distinction to be humbled by the faith reposed by you all in me as the HEAD GIRL of such an eminent school and for this I would like to thank all those who believed in me and my abilities to lead the school.

Josephites, we are a strong grade, blessed with our own remarkable talents. For me, it is important to acknowledge that our success lies in drawing from each other’s strengths, rather than overcoming challenges alone.

Surround yourself with good people – those who will celebrate and motivate you.

Ask for help when you need it – you are in a place that encourages you to do so.

You are a work-in-progress – don’t expect to get everything right the first time !

No one is holding you back – not your friends, your teachers, nor your parents; you are the only one who can limit yourself.

The key to more success..is to have every key.

The key to open every door: bless up.

Most of all, enjoy every moment and smile.

Be kind, be brave, and be confident !

Let’s take our School to greater heights of success. We will travel this road together and work in unison !

A warm greetings to all .I feel short of words to express my emotions, my gratitude for the opportunity I have received to be the Head boy of the school .I extend my sincere thanks to my principal and teachers who inculcated such capabilities in me that I felt confident to be able to discharge my duties and responsibilities as the Head boy of the most prestigious school of Greater Noida .Also I very specially thank all the students who trusted me and have put their faith in me.

A team is like a tool set, not one tool can do all the jobs, but together it can ,so let’s join our hands together to work with team spirit in the day to day functioning of our school and the students.

Let’s take our school to the greater heights of success.

It is indeed a great honour and privilege to be the Head Girl of the REPUTED AND PRESTIGIOUS SCHOOL OF Greater Noida, St.Joseph’s School, for the academic session 2018-19. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to our Principal and teachers for providing a platform to develop leadership. I thank all the students for having faith in me that I am capable of taking up this role. To be the Head Girl requires a lot of sacrifice, hard work and tolerance .With the co-operation of all I assure that I will accomplish my responsibilities successfully and will execute my duties wholeheartedly and tirelessly.

I stand here to work in collaboration with each one of the josephite to achieve the best for our school. I promise to work hard with all my zeal, devotion and determination. I will try my best and work persistently for the excellence of our school.

We will travel this road together and work in unison to keep St.Joseph’s banner flying high up in the sky, mounted with love, hoisted with dignity, and fluttering with grace.

“Coming together is the beginning, keeping together is progress, working together is success.”

School is not only an infrastructure, but it is a practice for future; the things taught in school are not the education but it is the means of education.

Being a student for 11 long years in St. Josephs, I can assuredly say that it is the best institution to be in. It is the confluence of well educated ‘guiding-lights’ – the teachers, who burn themselves through their hard work to lit up the developing candles; a perfect head to lead the institution – the principal, the other supporting staff who help us through their visible and invisible ways.

Undoubtedly, I can say that St. Joseph’s family is helping me to emerge as a good student with an influential and effective personality.

For me, being the head boy is not about the position or a title but it is about action and example which can make a difference. It is an honour and privilege for me to be the head boy of the school. I stand here as a leader not just to lead you but to work in collaboration with each one of you to achieve the best for our school. I promise to work hard with all my zeal, devotion and determination.

I’ll try my best and work persistently for the excellence of our school.

Let us show the world, the strength of unity as Josephites.

It is no secret that hard work is the deciding factor between those with talents who fall and those excel in life. Often times we fail to pursue our goals and dreams because of fear that we are not naturally talented enough; we fear that we don’t have the innate ability to teach ourselves to master a specific skill. This is wrong. I can say from my own life. I have spent more than 11 years in this institution which gave me confidence, motivation and empowered me.

Being elected as the head girl of this institution for the session (2017-18). I Tanya Tiwari see this as a great opportunity to share my young vision in our changing society. In a society opportunities come with three obligations: first one must seize, secondly must hold it and thirdly you must live it. Opportunities are nurtured only by action.

This institution with its staff and students treat each and every student as its own child. It provides ample opportunities to make us realize our hidden talents so as to fly high: explore unlimitedly and grow to be a matured individual.

"It is always hard work that gives you results; talent and interest are just stairs that take you towards the start of your journey of success."

School is not a building or a place to visit for a few hours for fun and enjoyment; instead it's a factory where perfection is created with great zeal and zest.

St. Joseph’s School is surely playing a very active and positive role in it. It's been a great pleasure for me to study here and be a part of it.

Discipline, sincerity and kindness are the pillars on which my ideals are based. And as the head boy I do my best to show it and inspire others with it.

It is said: "Great leaders set example in front of others and inspire them."

As students it is necessary for you to share your ideas and views so that we can do better in future, keeping in mind that discipline is a must in life as it develops our character..

As the cabinet head, I would like to say that we are not here to boss over you but to be your friend and solve your problems. All of us are building blocks of this institution and it is our duty to create a fresh, friendly and disciplined atmosphere.

We are here to prove ourselves and to show the world our talents and abilities, so don't be shy of it.

Special thanks to the management and teachers for cooperating with us and showing us the light to the pathway.

And at last, I express my gratitude towards the enlightening and enabling visions of our school heads, our Principal Rev Fr. Mathew Kumblumoottil, Headmistresses, the untiring teachers, the kind staff and the student aspirants who put trust in my ability to lead and produce results.

I assure you that I will leave no stone unturned to make our school reach unscaled heights by trying to keep the child intact within us all.

May our learning be holistic that conjoins our body, mind and heart.

May our dreams go beyond individual destinations and bind humanity.

May our growth be realistic that leads us to maximum happiness.

May our contribution be significant to the greater good of the society.

We all are here to learn, to dream, to grow and to contribute. This is what makes our lives worthwhile!

Being elected as the HEAD GIRL of the school cabinet (2016-2017). I, Ishita Sharma, sees this as a great opportunity: an opportunity to inculcate values, discipline and harmony in lives of others; an opportunity to lead by example. This indeed is an opportunity to create a shared vision for a better society.

I will lead the school cabinet with the only agenda of staging exemplary results.

But how will I do it? Let me narrate a short story.

Once in a Sunday Christian School, a teacher asked the students to paint something about Jesus. One child painted an Aeroplane. It was a very haphazard attempt as it only looked like an Aeroplane. There were four people peeping out of the four windows on the plane. The teacher was intrigued, "Who are these four people looking from the window?"

The child said, "One is God, the father, second is Jesus Christ, the Son and the third is the Holy Ghost."

After knowing three, the teacher was even more curious. He asked, "Three are all right, but who is this fourth?

The child said, "It's me Shubh, the pilot." The story underlines the message what I want to convey. A child knows how to carry the whole society on his back, in his Aeroplane. He knows his dreams, his strengths and his space. He is not bothered about the divinity or any sort of limitations, because he knows how to create his castle on the sea-shore irrespective of the tides. He knows how to survive in a little space, because he knows how to paint the color of his own choice on the plain sheet of destiny. But gradually as we keep moving into adulthood, we tend to forget the child in us and a life of limitations awaits us.

So be in the classroom, in the playground, or in the survival of the fittest, always carry the child within your heart.

The school cabinet selected from the masses, by the masses and for the masses will surely help students grow and excel and become better humans by keeping the child within them awake.

And at last, I express my gratitude towards the enlightening and enabling visions of our school heads: our Principal Rev Fr. Mathew Kumblumoottil, Headmistresses, the untiring teachers, the kind staff and the student aspirants who put trust in my ability to lead and produce results.

I assure you that I will leave no stone unturned to make our school reach unscaled heights by trying to keep the child intact within us all.

A very warm welcome to use website of St. Joseph's School.

“ The greatest Leader is not necessary the one that does great things; But he is someone that gets people to do the greatest things…”.

It had been long time I have been passed by this institution. 15 years had been passed that I have been the part of St. Joseph's School.

I consider myself to be fortunate as I’ve been given such a great opportunity to hold the flag of St. Joseph's School by being the head boy.

This campus had provided a great a support to the students so that they can learn the true meaning of life and can achieve success. It is a best place for the students for giving the chance to apply what life and can achieve success. It is a best place for the students for giving the chance to apply what they have learnt to unfamiliar situation.

Today standing at this place, I would like to give thanks to the management, my respected teachers and of course my co-mates for their kind support and encouragement.

This institution has helped my emergence as a student and also as a good human being.

It is a matter of extreme honor to be elected as head boy of the School. Being passionate and loyal leader I’ll try best to help all the students to achieve their full potential and and accomplish aspirational grades.

Finally I would like to express my gratitude's to all my supporters and well wishes.

A heartily welcome to the website of St. Joseph's School

“MANAGEMENT DOES THING RIGHT, LEADER DOES RIGHT THINGS…”

Since 6 years, I’ve experienced a great deal of challenges and achievements in St. Joseph's School. I am extremely privileged to hold the esteem position of the head girl of the School and to hold high the glorious flag of the institution. Being a leader I’ll serve with my best so that our School can achieve greatest height.

This is the great place to where the students get help and correct guidance in every aspect of their life. This campus has provided a wide platform for the students to accomplish their dream and to move ahead on the track of success to achieve their goals. It has provided unlimited opportunities for the students in order to identify and expose their hidden talents.

As being a head girl from the students side its my motive to help others with my commitment and determination so that all the students can achieve best of their ability.

I’ll be failing in my duty if I don’t express my gratitude to the management, my teachers for encouragement and my colleagues for their support.

I owe my heart full thanks to all of them.

It is a privilege for me to be the Head Boy of this prestigious institution in which I have been studying for the past 12 years. I thank the almighty for blessing me with such a great School. I thank our principal, my teachers and my Schoolmates for the trust they have placed in me and realizing the hidden potential of a leader in me and electing me as the Head Boy of this institution.

“To become a Diamond you have to be cut and Polished” and “To be a shining star you have to be burnt”

I thank this wonderful institution, especially my teachers for giving such moral and spiritual values which have polished and shaped me to become worthy of being the head boy.

My dear friends, we all have a leader within us. It is men, who possess the qualities to make history but not the other way round. In the absence of leadership society stands still. Progress occurs when courageous, skilful leaders seize the opportunity to change the things for better. We all should have a vision. A vision upon which we should articulate clearly and forcefully on all occasions. So my friends, recognize the leader within you and work with full enthusiasm and exuberance to achieve your goals, because Leadership is nothing, but the capacity to transform vision into reality.

We know that united we stand and divided we fall. So throughout this academic session we will try to work together as a team and will always stand by each other because we believe that UNITY is strength.

I will try my best to maintain the decorum and to do full justice to this responsibility bestowed upon me as a JOSEPHITE with full enthusiasm, liveliness and wisdom.
