My name is Issey and I have been at Putney since Reception. Since I joined the senior school, I have tried almost every sport available here at Putney and currently am a member of the gymnastics and lacrosse team.

I chose to apply for the position of Deputy Head Girl because I always found the previous team inspiring – they were great role models for me to look up to throughout senior school.

I hoped that I would be selected for the position so I could continue the great work of the current team and try to encourage other girls to get involved with everything that is offered at Putney. I would like to bring a positive influence to the school inspiring the younger girls and representing the student voice.

I currently study Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Further Maths and am doing an EPQ at A level. I hope to go onto to study medicine at university and eventually become a paediatrician or obstetrician. I attend Medical Society, Biology “Hot Topics” as well as tutoring some of the younger girls in Biology, Chemistry and Maths.

I’m Rosie and I’m currently studying Biology, Chemistry and Maths. In addition, I’m doing an EPQ (extended project qualification) with the hope of studying Biology at university.

The first step to becoming a Deputy Head Girl was applying for the position of Prefect. In my view, a prefect should be a role model showing enthusiasm and commitment to the appointed role, whether that be Careers Prefect or a Sport Prefect.

Student voice is extremely important to me and I want to be involved in presenting and advocating new ideas suggested by fellow students.

I am extremely honored to have been selected for the Head Girl team and I am looking forward to working closely with my colleagues. I want to be involved in presenting and advocating new ideas suggested by fellow students.

I guarantee that I will approach this role with enthusiasm, determination and many ideas to contribute.

I’m Mia and I’m currently studying Maths, Biology and Chemistry. After Sixth Form I aspire to go to University and eventually join the medical profession.

I was motivated to apply for Deputy Head Girl because during my time at Putney I have been able to find my passion and I am committed to helping every other girl find theirs.

Senior School years bring many challenges as we navigate what feels like significant life changing decisions. Being at Putney has enabled me to find my way, grow in character, strengthen my curiosity and widen my friendships.  As Deputy Head Girl I want to support every student to do the same.

My advice to anyone considering whether they, some day, may wish to apply to be a member of the Head  Girl team would be to absolutely go for it.  The process has inspired me, given clarity as to what I consider important at Putney, and it has been extremely rewarding to witness the support from fellow pupils across year groups.
