SENIOR PREFECT : 2009

I am pleased to announce that Benjamin Bradford (Baines House) is the Senior Prefect of Michaelhouse for 2009. We congratulate Ben and wish him well in the challenge which lies ahead. The rest of the Prefects, House Prefects and Student Leaders will be announced on Tuesday 21 October 2008.

WHITE BADGE PREFECT

The White Badge which is worn by the Senior Prefect and Second Prefect, may be awarded to another School Prefect who has shown such excellent conduct and a fine example that he would be an obvious choice for the above positions if they were vacant. I am pleased to announce that David Zwemke, Head of Tatham House, has been promoted to the position of a White Badge Prefect.
