This includes encouraging students to actively participate in sports, spiritual growth, scouting, leadership programmes, and other co‑curricular activities that which help shape them into well‑rounded individuals.

“I strongly believe that true leadership means leading by example at all times,” he said.

Head girl Vasemaca Ratu said being head girl means being a role model, a leader, and a voice for her fellow students.

“It is not just a badge title — it is a responsibility. To me, it means setting a good example through my behaviour, my attitude, and my commitment to my school,” she said.

“It means representing Korovuto Primary School with pride. It is my privilege and honour to serve the school community and contribute to its continued success,” the Nawaqadamu Village, Nadi native said.
