St. Thomas’ College on Saturday organized its Investiture Ceremony 2026 with great enthusiasm marking a significant occasion where newly appointed student leaders
formally assumed their responsibilities.
The event commenced with a solemn prayer led by the School Principal followed by the oath to the newly appointed Prefects. The oath emphasized commitment, integrity, and dedication toward upholding the values and discipline of the institution. The highlight of the ceremony was the presentation of badges and ties to the College Captains and Prefects by their proud parents, symbolizing the trust and responsibility bestowed upon them.
The newly appointed College Captains for the academic session are:
· Shubhangini Bisht (Class 12-M) – Girl College Captain
· Ayushmann Sundriyal (Class 12-M) – Boy College Captain
Prefects from all four houses—Burn, Cole, Degruyther, and Fraser—were also conferred with their badges by their parents in the presence of the teachers, and fellow students.
Following the investiture, the Principal presented the College banners to the College Captains, while Housemasters and House Mistresses handed over the house flags and house banners to the respective Prefects of their house. The newly appointed leaders then walked down the aisle, symbolizing their readiness to lead and serve the school community.
The Principal addressed the gathering, congratulating the students and encouraging them to uphold the values of discipline, responsibility, and teamwork. The ceremony concluded with the School Song. The event ended on a celebratory note with refreshments for parents, staff, and the newly appointed Prefects in Fraser Hall.
