TOKYO, 17 MAY, 2018: Pride and elation reigned as senior student council members were inducted as office bearers at the Investiture Ceremony conducted on May 17 at the Tokyo Campus.

The process is an opportunity for Grade 9 students to nominate themselves for various leadership roles within the school such as the School Captain, Sports Captain, House Captain among other prestigious roles.
