The Junior Prefects of St. Sebastian’s College, Moratuwa was started in 1995. It was under the guidance of Rev. Brother Charles Dodanwela the Principal of the college.
The Prefects were selected by the Staff. Nominations were called & evaluated the performances of those who have applied for this post. Fifteen Students of grade nine were selected, including the Head Prefect and the Deputy Head Prefect. Initially Mr. Bertrem Fernando was in charge of Junior Prefects. The Prefects Oath on the Loyalty day and the badges are given on the same day.
The duties of Junior Prefects are to see the general discipline of Grades 6, 7 & 8 students during specific times such as - till the morning classes start, during the interval and when the school is over. They also have to attend school functions such as - sports meets big matches, prize giving’s, teacher's jubilee celebrations and also for the funerals of the staff, old boys, students, etc.
The ego of a Junior Prefect is to have leadership qualities and work to the entire satisfaction of the school authorities and to live up to the trust & confidence. They must also be an example to their fellow students, by good moral character.
Therefore Junior Prefects are a great asset to the school. They will lead the foot path to live with a spirit of a true Sebastianite.
